Discipline

So Mommy is sharing some information about her day with me. She says something that is kind of sad and what does my princess do? C.J. laughs. So I thought to myself, what better time to start a little discipline? So I asked her to look at me in a very stern voice and explained to her that laughing was not nice. She stares me right in my face and laughs again. At this time I wanted to get a belt. Mommy laughed and said you know you're not going to do anything, lol!

C.J. is beginning to look more and more like her cousin Breezie these days. The question has to be whether or not the personality will accompany the look? Breezie is an interesting character...full of pizazz, life and spunk. She has a style of her own and an attitude that is always up for interpretation. So now we have C.J. who has a smirk that she shines when need be, and a smile that says, "You can not discipline me...I am too cute for that." What Daddy has to do is gain the strength to look beyond the smile and the grin and remain stern in his position so C.J. learns right from wrong. Mommy is ahead in the discipline category so Daddy has to catch up a bit.

Tonight she went to sleep without fuss so that is an accomplishment for us all. We love her dearly but we love sleep as well. That is about it tonight. Some days are more eventful than others, but nonetheless, we are blessed that she is healthy and is really strong. So as I go, continue to pray because we know prayer changes things!
