Best Part of the Day - The kiddos are obsessed with this owl at the little Nature Museum. Now every time we get our shoes on to go out the door Wes says "go? bye bye? owl?" Most of the time I have to say "no, we're not going to see the owl" and then both boyz either tear up or pout or both. Today (Erik included) we got to the see the owl to much joy and "hi owl! hi owl!"
Worst Part of the Day - At said Nature Museum, Wes was on a tear. He raced around, put tree ornaments in the turtle habitat and generally did not listen. When we got home he dumped an entire Danimal smoothie on the ground. Erik turns to me and says "this child needs a spanking - he has no discipline. What are we supposed to do if we can't spank him?" Instead of whacking Erik (I think that would send a mixed message), I said that it is a lot about the age and the personality of THIS kid (i.e. he loves a reaction. Always has. Plus he has a big ole naughty streak.) I think you need to be careful about how much you try to 'beat' out of a child. We are going to need a better time out deal, that much is true.
