I got this idea from the Douglas Drama. Who got the idea from MCKMAMA.

Not me Mondays

I did not buy one parenting book from Amazon this weekend, but 3 parenting books. Parenting the Strong-Willed Child: The Clinically Proven Five-Week Program for Parents of Two- to Six-Year-Olds [Revised and Updated Edition]BY:Rex Forehand

Kid Cooperation: How to Stop Yelling, Nagging and Pleading and Get Kids to Cooperate BY: Elizabeth Pantley


Discipline for Life : Getting it Right with Children BY: Madelyn Swift

Do you see a pattern? Having a 3 year old is tough. They can talk and can talk back. I know you are probably laughing at me, but that is okay, everyone has to go through it.

I did not let MK eat cookies in church just to keep her quiet.:-) She was hungry, too. Yeah right.

I did not play beauty shop with her so that I could paint her toenails. She sits so still if I paint her toenails. She likes red... While she waits for the paint to dry, I can cut her hair. That's the real deal.

I did not just let MK bring her watering can into the bathtub with her, I also let her bring the mud that was caked inside in too. That was fun. There was some bark in there too. Fun times getting that out. Next time I will ask what is in the watering can before I say a quick yes, just to get her to take a bath...

Pick your battles people!

Hope you got a laugh and hope you had a great Monday. Is there anything you didn't do today?
