We are all working on something each day.
Even me.
Each day is different, yet each day is the same.
Sometimes I am thrilled to be where we are, sometimes I am... not so thrilled!

I am learning how to teach important life skills and not be a drill Sergeant.
"Write it again so I can read it...Do 10 more...Did you read the directions?...I can't read your answer...You skipped some problems...You didn't follow the directions."
...the skills that seem so small are huge in life...

I am working on:
praising more than scolding
having an encouraging tone in my voice
focusing on my child and noticing how hard he is working
saying more positive things, even when I am correcting
pointing out what is good before pointing out what is wrong

Yip, I am working too!
