I’m definitely trying to have a more compassionate approach while being firm. But man, do I hear my mom’s voice coming out of me a LOT! And, the creeper was my go-to move when I was teaching…walk by, get it their space, put a hand on the desk… that’s usually all it took. They were caught, lol. Thanks for sharing your wisdom, Jamie! 🙂

Oh and both Jonas and Cora have eaten dog food (I’m gonna chock it up to a better immune system)

Oh I am most definitely a few seconds too late more often than not when it comes to the twins. They are just EVERYWHERE.

It’s like a not-so-subtle reminder that yes, I DO have eyes in the back of my head : )

Thank you for sharing your story Emily! To do-over is my favorite in my adult life too : )

It might give me a way to get out of the 4 o’clock when she calls my bluff. Also, I’m totally the creeper, although I was a few seconds too later earlier this week and Ave ate cat food. I suppose there are worse things. Truth be told, it’s kind of funny.

I agree. Just being where they can see me makes a big difference-and being in earshot gives less effect than in sight.

My husband and I adopted our oldest son through foste care. He was five when we adopted him and let’s just say….everything I THOUGHT I knew about discpline…well, I had to basically throw it out the window. The “DO OVER” was one of the revolutionary things we started. He had been so used to behaving and handling things in a certain way…and he truly and honestly needed the practice in “doing it over” correctly. I now have two more children who God gave to me biologically. Even though I have had them since birth, we still do “do overs”….especially with my three year old. Parents always need a variety of tools in their “toolbox” when it comes to discipline. What works for one child may not work for another, so the more ideas the better!

Quietness is ALWAYS good medicine for all of us, Judith. Thanks for sharing!
