Going Private!!!

I am going private because weird people are leaving me comments. Please leave your email if you want an invite! Thanks!

Cute kids!

This morning I asked Emmerie to get dressed while I was getting Ray dressed and she said "I don't want to play the beat game." I said what is that and she said " the game where you beat people." I said Emmie that doesn't sound very nice and she said "Mom you know where you try to beat someone getting dressed." I guess she's not very competitive. I often say " Hurry Emmie or Ray will beat you. That Mom strategy doesn't work for her.......

Good thing it is working with cousins. Jeanette and I often talk about how hard it is to get Jamie and Nolan up, dressed, and to school on time. They just don't seem to care. I told Ben the other day that short of rewarding Nolan for getting to school on time I have tried everything and I didn't want to reward him when I've been fighting with him for almost 2 years now. He also has no problem getting up on Saturday or Sunday. Ben thought it was a great idea to turn the tables and reward him when he was on time and I talked to Jeanette and we decided to make it a competition between Nolan and Jamie. The first morning we were at a stop sign when Jeanette drove by in front of us and Nolan said "hurry mom we've got to beat Jamie!" Maybe this will work!
