Not 2 minutes later and the little child was inside in tears because "Isaac thru a snowball at my ear" to which I did my best to be sympathetic while saying "buddy, if your hat was on this would not have happened"........ so glad I caught this on film, otherwise I would not have known it was so beautiful before the tears.....

This neat little "chart" is going to **hopefully** end the mommy meltdown morning's as I YELL for the say.....5th time to brush your teeth or brush your hair or get YOUR SHOES ON!! If you do and mark, at the end of the day mom will check that it's finished and you get a piece of candy in your lunch the next day... If you do and forget to mark..............not my problem, your out of luck, if you don't do.....again, no candy for you............

I think the hardest part will be ME keeping my mouth shut and the consequence speaking for itself..... I'm stubborn and will succeed, the children(girl child) the verdict is out.....

Very sweet !

I hope your chart works well for you. I don't know that being quiet is in our genetic make up though.

I gotta do something like this chart for my kid. Me: "Did you brush your teeth? Can you pick that up? Don't forget to brush your teeth. Can you pick that up NOW!? BRUSH YOUR TEETH!!!" Yeah. Every day.
