Welcome to April's Finding the Funny! Before we start sharing our funny posts, we have a (huge) giveaway!
My Parenting Victory (and a HUGE giveaway)!
My Yogurt Eaters |
Bedtime. A struggle, to put it mildly in my home, and I'm sure in many of yours. Most nights I feel as though I'm going into battle against an adversary equipped with the latest technological advances, while I have only a basket of blueberries.
But last night I decided to take back the power.
I explained the rules. Bedtime was at 9 pm sharp. They could have as many stories as they wanted if they got their bath done, pj's on and teeth brushed quickly. I would set a timer, and when it beeped at 9 pm, it was lights out.
They seemed to get it. They loved the idea of having as many stories as possible if they moved quickly, which they did. Both got 3 stories each, with me reading to Mr. R and the Hubs to Lady A. When the buzzer rang, there was minimal protest -- far less than I expected. Within minutes they had their fill of hugs and kisses and were tucked into bed.
IT WORKED! Victory was mine! I was proud of myself for not caving, and of them for cooperating. A system is born! From now on, hopefully bedtime will be as easy as it is to get them to eat their morning yogurt!
