Our first week

Our first week of school has been a success in that we made it through! The first couple of days were a rough start due to some attitudes that developed last year. I have allowed a couple of my kids to grumble and complain when the work is hard and, unfortunately, this has become ingrained and natural for them. Problem-solving with a good attitude are at the top of the list of things to work on this year. Of course, I will have to spend more than one week weeding this little garden of mine before the healthy habits begin to grow and flourish again.

Sparrow has a nice post called "habit forming" that encouraged me this morning. You might want to check it out!
