Kids...

Kids are such funny creatures.

Lately I have been noticing some behavior problems. I have noticed that Zach is acting like me! Ugh, now there is a mirror I didn't want held up! He keeps trying to parent Jeremy, and his methods are not always flattering.

It's nothing too horrible, just a tone of voice, or the wording that he uses. It has really opened my eyes to how I parent, and how I want to parent. Changes are forthcoming.

I just need to start paying attention to what I say, and how I say it. It is amazing to me how they pick up things from us as parents. I have decided to be kinder (working on it), more patient (working on that too), not yell as much (gunna be hard), and listen to them more (ugh...do I have to). It's going to be good, and I think that we will all be happier.

They are such good kids, and I am lucky to be their mom!
