This morning Nate awoke before me and came down stairs while Cam came into my room and woke me up. I called down to Nate and asked him to come back upstairs but being 3 he didn’t listen. So I got dressed and Cam and headed down stairs. I could hear him playing in the living room so I figured everything was okay and didn’t rush. As I was reaching the bottom of the stairs Nate asked me “Please me chocolate?”, “No” I said.”Your not having chocolate before breakfast.” I then walked in the livingroom to notice something on his face I looked a little closer and realised that it was chocolate (he had gotten into the left over Christmas treats). The little toad was sitting here eating chocolate while I was upstairs. I cleaned him up and gave him a time out but that just didn’t seem like enough punishment so for the rest of the day he was banned from having sweets (including juice). A few hours after breakfast Cameron asked for atreat he had been behaving really well so I let him have a little bit of his Christmas chocolate. Cam had a smaller peice then the one Nate had eaten in the morning but that didn’t matter to him. He was so upset that Cam was having a treat and he wasn’t. Then they wanted juice with lunch but Nate was reminded that he wasn’t allowed to have any because he had taken treats without asking. This time he was mad, but I really think the punishment worked. Later in the afternoon he was playing telling his toys not to eat treats or they would be in trouble and wouldn’t get juice. I love when things work out the way they are meant to.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
