Times are tough in our household! I asked my Question to my little ladies before bed yesterday, "What is one thing we can do together this month?" with an answer that was completely in-sync, like they rehearse this stuff! It was a shout, "Imagination Station." I was waiting for one to say something different, but instead it was the same answer, which is awesome because we love Imagination Station, plus we have the membership- so it's a free day!
Too easy is my first thought on this one!
Today is DAY 2.
This one is going to be a challenge. I almost want to make this a challenge for my kids because they do their share of this in our house!
Go the WHOLE day without YELLING.
Obviously, I know this can be done, as I have had maybe a handful of these kinds of days- but they are so far away to date that I can hardly remember them. It seems that my girls have broken ears on most days (and yes, we do threaten to take them to a "special" doctor who will do surgery and give them Elephant Ears to help them hear all things!) and unless I raise my voice, my warnings are completely and utterly ignored.
I am going to try this today though. It would be a great day to have a yelling free home, but like I said, they do their share of it too! Usually it starts with them yelling, me calmly telling them to use their indoor voice and them consistently ignoring me that leads to a Girls! shout. Oh what fun it is to be a PARENT!
Let me know how this challenge is going for your family! I will let you know how my day goes today- YELLING FREE ZONE here!
Until Tomorrow all my Parents!!
