How to raise them right

A moose walking down our street


My delightful office roomie and I were talking about parenting and he mentioned. "That is why you have to raise them right."

To which I replied, "Is there a book on how to do that?"

But of course there isn't....I checked Amazon.

So instead I am reading other mothers blogs, listening to advice, and following my gut and heart with Ocoee.

Today this tidbit stood out to me.

Allow feelings, Limit behavior.

Yea that makes sense to me. As in yea monkeys are cool, I wish we could have one too, but No you can't swing from the banister railing like a monkey, too dangerous. Want to go look for a moose in the park instead.

Happy 3 day weekend.

Cheers
