Have a New Kid by Friday????

So I finally caved and bought yet another parenting book. This one is by Dr. Kevin Leeman. I have actually read another book by him as well, 'how to make your child mind without losing yours'. Many of the concepts are the same and just as applicable as they were when Zachary was 2. So far the just of what I have gathered is that I need to change not my children. How encouraging lol :) It is so true through. How many times so I allow myself to get pulled in to power struggles and fits where I eventually lose my cool? More than I'd like to admit. Easier said than done when your 3 children are playing around instead of getting ready for school and you know they'll miss the bus if they don't hurry up yet you are not supposed to nag, warn, threaten, or get angry. I'd have to say I had an easier time following his theories this afternoon. Mornings are so hectic the way it is! Wish me luck, tomorrow is a new day and I'm not backing down :)
