    I asked them to clean up three times. Their motivation is severely lacking and I am not up to a battle of wills, today.

    I placed a pan of HM cinnamon/sugar croissants to cool on top of the tallest bookshelf and helped myself to one piping hot at my desk. They are now wildly motivated.

    My work here is done.

        My friend shared this video to Facebook. It's pretty much accurate.

          Me to Jane, who's on the potty: "You did it!"
          Jane: "No; me Jane."

            *moves child off my lap*
            DCG3: “why can’t I sit on you?”
            Me: “it’s super hot in here for some reason, I’m dying”
            Different DCG3: *fanning self* “yeah I’m dying too”
            Original DCG3: “me too! Baby (child with same name, always calls her baby for little B) you died too?”

            Oh how they pick up every little thing hahah

              1. How my DS thinks ignoring someone works:

              Me: Just ignore him.
              DS: IGNORE! IGNORE! IGNORE! IGNORE! IGNORE!

              2. Dcb2.5 is a massive Mine-o-saur, and just got upset because another kid "took it from me". As I'm watching trying to figure out what "it" is, dcb walks over takes something invisible from other kid and walks away triumphantly.

                  Trying so hard not to laugh over the phone at my sister-in-law. She called me this morning asking for any of my daycare supplies that I don't use. She is thinking about doing it herself. So here is why I think this is a hoot:
                  1. She loses at least one job a year for taking too many sick days.
                  2. My brother is the full-time parent and works full time from his home office. She has never participated in parenting tasks that aren't "cute".
                  3. She takes at least one nap every day.
                  4. She was arrested last month for breaking and entering to get narcotics.

                  Yep, we have a winner!!!!

                    She won't get past the licensing process.

                      I'm trying to transition my 18 mo to a cot; today being the first day. She's extremely strong-willed but a real sweetheart. She's the dcg I'd adopt in a heartbeat if it was an option. Anyways, I set her cot out, nice cozy blanket, her stuffed Peter Rabbit she's gotten attached to here. Then I lay down beside her. Just figure it'd be a whole lot easier than getting up and down out of a chair 50+ times. I'm not sure if this child will grow up to be a dentist, ophthalmologist, hair stylist, or just a really great nose-picker because I swear she wouldn't stop touching me for 45 minutes. Took everything not to bust out laughing at her. Lol But 45 minutes later, she's a little sleeping angel.

                        New line in my job description- relationship counselor for DCB11 & DCG10 (who have both came here for 4-5 years). DCG is mad at DCB because he didn't tell her he had an afternoon Dr appointment so wouldn't be on the bus to sit by her. ::

                          Look Into My Eyes

                          One of my DCB's came in today and I was holding him and talking to him but also looking at another child. He grabs my face and says look into my eyes, I am talking to you! He is 2 years old going on 30!

                            Someone contacted me today asking for a spot for summer care. Gave them my price and they replied “that’s really out of our budget, we have budgeted 183 a month for child care. We could probably up it to 250 a month but that would be pushing it. Let me know if anything changes and you can help out”

                            🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 ok! That won’t grt you full time care ANYWHERE. That barely pays for two weeks of in home and one week of center care in my area. GOOD LUCK!

                              Oppositional defiant dcb, age 4, was the first one 'finished' with breakfast. In reality he just wanted to snatch and/or hide the favored toys so nobody else could use them. I made everybody stay at the table until everybody was done.

                              Dcb's response? "FINE! I'll just sit here and eat my cereal! But NOT because I'm hungry!"

                              ok then you do that dcb.

                                My son last night refused to eat dinner till his brother was done just so he could sit in daddy's chair cause you can see the TV screen. Sat at atbke while his brother ate them moved chairs and ate his whole dinner. Funny part TV was not on.
