They say one of the keys to discipline in children is consistency. Well, it seems I consistently say the same things over and over to Brooke in a given day. The top 5 things I find myself saying:
- That does not belong to you. Give it back.
- Finger out of your nose please!
- Did you poop?
- Get out of the fridge!
- Get your hands out of you hair when you’re eating!

I probably could have added, “Did you poop” to my list as well. Sad.
“did you poop??” yes, i say that to both my kids every single day. i’m waiting for the day I don’t have to say that. i fear it won’t be happening soon.
I’ve been saying the finger out of your nose comment a lot lately, too! I’ve come to terms that she must like digging and sometimes just let her dig because she is going to do it anyway ::sigh::
