DYK I typed about 4 different titles - all stupid. The one I landed on isn't all that great... but whatever!!


dyk and I had such a BAD day with the kids...and I do mean bad, terrible, horrible, made me want to cry, have an anxiety attack driving down the highway bad....


dyk that I decided even though we're 20 minutes from the New York New Year - it would make me happy to start this?

dyk I think Dek and I will have a quiet day at home, I'm looking forward to our nap time ;-)


dyk Abigail came into my bed this morning or we'd all have slept right on past 8am, and she was very happy not to have wet the bed.


dyk she wet a little very early on in the night and Sean took care of it but I realixed before that, she'd been dry about 4-5 nights - so the wettings are getting less and less frequent


dyk a friend of mine talks about how do I night train? how do you night train?


dyk NO SUCH THING - they either are ready to stay dry or they aren't.

dyk we took this parent class through church and the week on discipline was incredibly good - it didn't talk about what punishments, but rather the intent of the punishment.


dyk so think about what you're trying to mold her into or for with this pinushment, what you're trying to teach her and build in her

dyk I am determined my children not grow up with a sense of entitlement - I will squash it. SQUASH IT I TELL YOU.


dyk my quest at christmas, well, I failed totally with Abigail... between school, my parents, my grandparents and aunts/uncles.... she was overloaded - but not as much as my little niece Jadyn - b/c she only opened presents ONCE so it was ALL at my granny's house and she was NOT interested -


dyk meanwhile Abigail was like some present monster demanding more presents until I nearly took her out back with no witnesses


dyk and my mom was like, oh leave her be she's just excited.. um, I don't think so - no 5 yr old will DEMAND of me that I GET HER ANOTHER PRESENT


dyk however, when we got the swing set together they were properly excited, thankful and basically when it wsa together they both stood there and said OH MY GOSH and it was awesome.

DYK Anna is still in pull ups at night.


DYK it does sound like a lot of drama.


DYK my brother, Jim -- easier to use his name than keep describing him by his weakness -- was handling his stress so well, I was so proud of him.

dyk we do the same thing!!! the milk she gets at dinner is it for the night and she goes peepee on her own before bed b/c she hates waking up wet, but aside from that, there's not much else we can do -


dyk the friend who talks about night training wasn't happy with just those things - she wanted something she could DO to make her DD not wet the bed.

Sheila,


DYK regarding Megan asking you about what the problem was with the pictures...it's easy for me to say, but the bottom line is that you had already forewarned her that she shouldn't do this (the last time you found them), and she didn't respect your wishes.


DYK again, it's easy for me to say.


DYK I also have a huge difference in my kids.
