Cindy Pierce and Parenting On Track team up!

Cindy Pierce and Vicki Hoefle will presenting at Pierce's Inn 
Friday, March 19th - Sunday, March 21st, 2010

Okay fellow parents I believe that Cindy Pierce's message for parents on sex and Vicki Hoefle's message on parenting will be the ultimate couples retreat. REALLY!

Parenting and sex, this is funny stuff people. I just got back from the Pierce's Inn where Cindy hosted 65 women for a night of dinner and comedy with "Finding the Doorbell". I starting listening to Cindy Pierce's stories when I was 16 years old when she was my dorm parent at Burke Mountain Academy. These stories are as hysterical and wacky as the Inn she runs! The best part is they are all true stories about her encounter with sex and her message for long term healthy sexual relationships.

Then we have the Parenting extraordinaire, Vicki Hoefle, who will be hosting workshops throughout the weekend! Now if you have not heard Vicki present her message in Parenting On Track you are missing serious learning opportunities, in my opinion, on building strong relationships with your kids (anyone really) and you are missing a very entertaining presenter who will have you laughing and crying in about twenty seconds.

Sold on the March weekend at Pierce's Inn with Vicki Hoefle and Cindy Pierce!!!! Go for it and enjoy!

Welcome back routine!



It has taken our family the better part of two months to get our routine back into place. Santa has come and gone and so has the toy-crazed children that were living in my house! I was patient and did all the "re-training" that Parenting On Track encourages us to do and BINGO. I am happy to report we have found balance in our home, at least for this month! Progress feels great and I am off to celebrate with my kids by playing a little Wii Sports with them!

I would tell you that reading a parenting book would help if that work but I really, truly, believe Parenting On Track is the best parent education program on the market today!

Making memories around cleaning up



This is my favorite memory from Christmas. Cleaning up with a 3 and 4 year old after making sugar cookies.

Can they solve it ALONE?



I can't make this stuff up! While I thought I should interject my adult solution I did exactly as Vicki Hoefle says and kept my mouth shut. I was remembering back to all the times we used everyday situations to teach our kids how to solve problems. Here is a list of some of the "situations" I am taking about: getting bags of groceries from the car to the house, making dinner, shopping, dressing the baby.

As Vicki says, "Good luck, go slow, be patient and have fun." I believe she says this because you don't have to have a master's degree to slow down and notice the small teaching moments in parenting. When I take parenting less seriously I have way more fun.
