We do...

The other night I spent some time on pinterest ( it has been a while). I was simply browsing, not looking for anything particular. But somehow I always seem to find my way back to this pin, one of my very first pins in fact. I love it! I have seen it in different forms. I suppose I could make it, but I know I don't really want to look at my handwriting hanging on my wall. This, in addition to a big ruler as a growth chart are on my wish list. I kind of hope to stumble upon them, but I feel like I may have to get a little more creative with my looking.

Any ideas for shopping strategies? ( I really have not looked, just dreamed)

Also,  any good ideas for teacher gifts?

What is your favourite line below? Hard, I like them all.  I guess We do dreams is mine.

What would you add? Me.....We always try our best. and to stick with the pattern it would be, We do best effort.  All I want and was ever taught was to try your hardest! 

A and I attended a parent session last week. It was put on by the ladies of parenting power. 

It was refreshing. Enjoyable and at times enlightening. 

What did I take away:

~remembering to love uniquely

~considering MY emotional feelings when mr 1 or mr 2 is getting a little too much ( annoyed = I want attention, want to growl and fight = I want to fight) ..not sure the boys know how to do this one yet! We were told to wait for it.

~little ones believe everything you say so if you say "We are never going to make it on time, they think yup you are right, we are not I will keep playing legos instead of putting on my socks. 

~do not do what they can do for themselves it is very discouraging. 

~let there be mistakes, they are small when they are little but the same mistake when they are older is much much bigger. 

~ parents make mistakes you have time to fix them.

In our home we make lots of mistakes and that is why I really want this "art work" because 

we do second chances

we do sorry

we do real 

and we do love 

EVERYDAY.
