Day #21

30 Jan 2013

Bad mom: Ripped into kid for interrupting people while they were talking perform a hostile conversation takeover.

Made kid eat dinner after she finished her homework and she just wanted to go to bed.

Good mom: nothing spectacular comes to mind...

Proud mom: kid caught onto how much she interrupts, catches herself when she does, and apologizes and waits until there is an opening to speak.

Day #21 lunch

Jalapeño havarti, New York cheddar, dry Italian salami, pretzel crackers, grapes, and strawberries.

Bad mom: couldn't do simple math when helping kid with homework; we both were coming up with different answers and neither one was correct. Thank goodness for calculator apps!

Good mom: tried to help kid with homework even though we both failed :)

Proud mom: kid is willing to help out when needed without being huffy about it,

Day #20 Lunch

Lunch: hawaiian rolls with lemon pepper chicken and havarti cheese. Grapes, strawberries, and carrots on the side. Kid is a foodie and likes Boar's Head the best. *sigh*

Duh...

Kid is looking through the sunroof as we are driving.
Kid: Are the clouds moving or are we?

LMAO!
