I took a small hiatus....well, like a month. I'm constantly working on myself, and bettering myself and giving my baby a good life.
The biggest thing I've been going through lately is discipline.....oh.my.gracious. I am trying to stop yelling...again. I am the parent who threatens, but doesn't follow through 90% of the time. Desi likes to push my buttons...a lot. Anything to get a reaction out of me. So, a few things that I am working on, and truly believe will be what helps me to raise a respectful young lady are:
1) Carefully pick my battles.
2) Follow through with punishments.
3) No yelling.
4) Take a breather, if needed....you know kids can really get you worked up and angry.
I really don't want to be the mom who has the child that no one wants to be around. And I just want her to respect me.
Do you have any pointers?! Share them!!!
