Hey look it's yet another new day !!

Greetings y'all ,

Well we survived yesterday, I see you did too since you're reading this here blog. I took your advice . I stuck to my plan , I gave my best disappointed dad look . I did not waver, I gave no quarter. 

So it only took junior mint 4 1/2 hours to complete his thirty minutes of work. He's a good boy and we did our CPS (collaborative problem solving).  He figured out the problem and offered a few suggestions. We will try one but if it doesn't work we can revisit it , retweek it or try the next one. The key is to dig up the function of the behavior and what te problem is not focus on what was done wrong. 

We eventually made it to the pool. I know it's a shock to hear the Robinson Boys engaged in aquatic activities . The pool was another story.There is a wonderful neighbor who truly views junior mint as quirky and exuberant and has been a great asset in keeping me straight. That is quite rare for me. I mean it's rare that I have adult interactions especially with someone who has a boy my son age an who gets my progeny. I mean truly gets who my son his. Heck she even gets me. I am grateful for the positive interaction.

So today is yet another tabla rasa. The weather looks to turn hinky so we may hit the pool early. I need to get back to Meeting with Friends but petrol and mula are tight . Ok that's a weak excuse.  Sure I can mediate anywhere but nothing beats being surrounded by the light of Meeting. 

Thanks for reading again today folks.
