June 26th 2013 Update

Well Avery is taking a nap right now due to it's very boring at our apartment right now. Why you may be asking, well he decided not to pick up his toys, so now they are ALL in my room until Saturday... Also no dvds today AT ALL!!! Also no playing outside... There were many incidents that brought on these consequences... So he has been looking at his books, sitting on the couch, & well now sleeping on his bed... MAYBE he will take me seriously this time.... Also we brushed our teeth together & there was no problem... Except I really think the issue is that the mint toothpaste might be a bit much for him. So as soon as I get paid, I am going to try the bubble gum kids toothpaste & see if that helps....

I find it interesting that they have all of these churches that do VBS & some churches charge you to have your children learn about Jesus... I remember growing up where they had VBS & they were all FREE... What is our world coming to? I got a flyer in the mail that is charging $12 per child to attend & learn about Jesus... I'm sorry but what a disgrace to Jesus... He said "Let the little children come unto me." He didn't charge them admission...

 So I woke Avery up from his nap so he could have a mini snack... First words out of his mouth were "can I play with my toys now?" I said "sorry son but you wouldn't pick up your toys earlier so you can't have them until Saturday morning." He said "well how many days is that mommy?" I said "well today is pretty much over so you have 2 more days." His response "Oh wow I get 2 more days to do nothing, how boring." I said "yep pretty much." Then he said "well can I watch a dvd now?" I said "well I told you earlier there would be no dvds today." But mommy I turned my attitude around." I said "yes you did but when I asked you earlier to stop doing what you were doing & you defied me, I told you what the consequence was." His response "oh so I guess I'm really gonna be bored tonight." My response "yes son but now maybe you understand that when I say something, I am going to follow through with it." His response "ok momma you the boss."
