I got a new Schwinn bike this week and as soon as I saw it’s cuteness, I decided it needed a basket to go with it. I searched on Etsy and this one and this one caught my eye, but in the end I ordered this one, I love the classic/vintage look of it.
So wish I could have been at this retreat.
Are there seriously parents still spanking their kids? I can’t believe there are still people out there that think this is a good idea.
I was recently introduced to Kayce Hughes clothes and just noticed her blog, it is has lots of Pin worthy posts!
Penelope started summer preschool this week, she now goes 5 mornings instead of 2 and eats lunch there. So I needed to order her lunch bag. After asking for recommendations on the MBL Facebook page (it was a great thread, thanks so much for all your ideas) and beginning to research them all. I started panicking about buying the perfect one. After a bit, I stopped and tried to reflect on why it was stressing me out so much. I realized it was because buying the perfect lunch box was something I could control, since I can’t control her growing up. Once I figured that out, I was immediately able to calm down and make a dang decision.
Here are some of the lunch bags and bento boxes I was anxiously pondering:
Hope you have an easier time picking a lunch box than me! I ended up buying the Pottery Barn one, because I liked the fabric choices best.
Have a great weekend!
The bible says spare the rod, spoil the child and I feel in our current society we have done just that. Because there aren’t any real serious consequences children (not mine) feel free to do as they wish, speak how they want, and treat people anyway they want. To be honest, as a child, if the only consequences were that i’d be grounded or get a time out or stern talking to, then I would have done whatever I wanted because I really wouldn’t mind the punishment. But since that was not how I was raised and there were real consequences for my actions I didn’t get into as much trouble as some of the children do now.
I am sorry but I totally disagree. In my book, hitting your kid is never a good idea or will produce a good outcome. Unconditional Parenting is a great book, if you would like to look into more options other than grounding and time outs that are effective.
