Well. my first day out as a more positive mom was about a 50% success. I experienced my greatest success while we were out of the house. Typical. We had a few of the "You don't love me" outbursts today, as well as a few "I'm not good at anything" episodes. She also tried to give her Cinderella Barbie to our neighbor as a self-inflicted punishment. Lord help me.
We checked out David Wiesner's Flotsam from the library this week. Perfect timing after our trip to the aquarium. She loved making up a story to go along with the pictures. She was still making up a story with her animals right after lights out.
She's still making great progress with her reading. Our second set of Bob books came this week, and she's having a ball reading through them. It gives her a big boost of confidence to read the books all by herself. DH and I only wished the second set of books were more challenging. I think we'll skip set 3 and order sets 4 and 5.
