Well for anyone who has young ones who aren't in school yet you have a huge idea as to what I'm bloggin' about.
So it's been officially a week ago that my son and I watched blues clues on nick jr, well the episode we were watching delt with the issue of anger management know to adults as daily life but yet to a growing little mind it's called Frustration.
So as we watched intently and learned from blue and steve, there are 3 steps to dealing with frustration... as said by steve, you must STOP, Breath, and THINK, sure sounds easy enough to as we repeated all the steps together, that is my son(4yr old) and I, He started to understand what to do when you get frustrated and can't seem to get things right, you just follow these steps and you'll be ok
well 4 nights ago, we had bought a new tooth paste by good ole' tom's organic grape flavored kids toothpaste, we had to brush our teeth with it, well I had misplaced it and couldn't find the damn bottle of tooth paste, as I retraced my steps over and over with my son right on my heels, asking mom where's my tooth paste, I want to brush my teeth, I felt myself getting worked up into a frantic frenzie of OH SHIT!!!!
at the moment that I started to stress and snapped a wait a minute response to my son, he turned and Looked me in the eye and grabbed my hand and said,
MOM, STOP, BREATH, AND THINK,
at that point I lost it and started to laugh myself to tears,
Yep, my son taught ME something for once that maybe blues clues isn't just for kids anymore?!?!?!?!
