Do overs are the best!
Here is what a "Do over" looked like in my house. The balance in our house has been somewhat blown off course for a short while since school started, I am launching a business and we are moving! It was Vicki Hoefle who inspired my "Do over" - thanks again to Parenting On Track!
Morning Routine: 2 out of the 3 were crying. Nothing was going right. Tears were in my eyes. So what did we do? a DO OVER! I picked them up and we snuggled on the couch until everyone was calm. We watch a bit of t.v. to get our minds off the thing that was wrong and BINGO. It was like a light switched in them and the smiles and giggles were back. Not kidding. Dropped one off late to school, but who cares, she was happy and our relationship was intact.
I don't have a picture of the lovely moment but believe me in that it was blissful. Try it the next time all of them are crying. Good Luck.
