My 7 year old. Bless him. For some reason, my darling youngest son decided that his "Fun with Money" class today was going to be far from fun. So, he thought he could just decide not to go. Yeeeeaaah, I don't think so.
I say it's time to go. He remains seated. Not budging. Plenty of fussing happening, but no walking. Little does he know that momma's not playing games. I've told him before that I don't count. You know, some parents will say, "If you don't...by the time I count to..." Nuh-uh. Not this momma. I'm still guilty of repeating myself sometimes (I'm a work in progress) but I refuse to count. He should also know by now that I know which buttons to push to get his attention. In an unusually calm voice I say, "Ok. No media for the rest of the day." Now he's wailing and causing a scene. "Oh, I see. You'd rather have no media for two days." "No, no, no! Mommy, I'm sorry. I'm sorry! Do you still love me?" I reassure him and wonder if this is a sincere question or if he's just trying to make me feel guilty...or hoping this question will relieve him of his consequence.

- I'm a mother of 3 who started blogging as a way to share our many adventures and to expand beyond the everyday "mommy world". While there IS so much more to us mommies than the title, there is very little that doesn't in some way or another lead us back to or influence our children...if anything. So, I hope you enjoy following our family's randomness, because as all moms know- you can never anticipate what tomorrow will bring! Thanks for visiting and have a blessed day! :)
