So here at the Watson house we practice a bit of the Love and Logic parenting. I present Finn with 2 choices--usually one is time out and the other is my way--but nevertheless, he has his own choice. He does pretty well with this concept and for the most part makes the "correct" choices. This morning while I was fixing lunch, Neelah kept throwing her sippy cup on the floor. Finn picked it up for her once and then she chucked it again. I asked Finn to just put it one the counter so she wouldn't drop it again. Then I hear him say, and I quote:
"Neelah, if you CHOOSE to not throw your sippy, I will give it back to you."
I look forward to watching Finn practice his parenting techniques on his little sisters. Should be good for a laugh. I love days where my kids make me laugh more than they drive me nuts!
