When we don't get our way

I just told Avery that we were going to listen to Veggie Tales: Bob & Larry Sing the 70's instead of her choice of the Madagascar Movie Soundtrack (she likes to "move it, move it"). Her response was her new favorite thing to say when she is denied something. "I'm giving up now."

Incidentally, Carson's usual tactic when disappointed is to punish me by punishing himself. He pouts, "I'm going to the corner!" and proceeds directly there. Richie just screams and runs away.

We're working on more positive responses to disappointments.

I typically take out frustration by cleaning the house. My house has been spotless lately!
