And So It Was...

I have been wanting to do a non-private blog for a while of just anything. Projects, advice, photography, etc. I was looking at wall decals online and Sylie looked at the bird picture above and said "look, its a mama chirp, a daddy chirp, a sylie chirp, and a JJ chirp."
I knew she had just come up with my new blog name.
MAMA CHIRP!

Favorite Parenting Tips

The behavior you pay attention to tends to repeat itself.  If you pay attention to behavior your child does that you do not like, then the child will keep doing that behavior.

When communicating with your children, a time-tested formula is "I feel about....because"  This way you are not putting the child on the defensive.  You are telling them how their behavior makes you feel.
