Challange #2, Day 5

This is a daily update in a series of blog posts for the challange we recently took with my wife. Our goal is to make us think before praising our son, think if it’s reasonable or what impact it may have. How did we do on Day #5?

I feel bad about it, but I truly don’t remember.. Seems like I wasn’t thinking a lot about it. I didn’t even spend enough time with the kid today. It is a weird day actually- it seems as if I haven’t done anything worthwhile. We are visiting our parents today, that mut be related, but still.. It’s a good example of a day when your focus is spread so thin that even most important things are forgotten.

We did speak about saying NO with my wife though- it seems it is a bad habbit we should have gone after in the first place, but we’re still hesitating- I’ll hunt for something to read about it tomorrow as I’m not very sure if we should not be saying NO so much, how should we put things then and so on. I’m not saying we are going to switch to a new habit, but it’s something to look at in the future.
