Memo to Mommy- Article Parents Magazine September 2008

You have a lot of lessons to teach your little ones, but they have a few words of wisdom for you too...

- Stop freaking out about the mess! There's always time to clean0 but how often do we get to make mud pies?

- Love me, even when I'm naughty. I'll only be this age once.

- Be patient. I do everything for a reason, but I don't know enough words yet to give you an explanation.

- Let me do it. I know you can do it faster and better, but sometimes experience is the best teacher.

- Don't expect too much of me. I want to do what you ask and make you happy, but I'm still little.

- Keep your promises. It's all about trust. When I'm a teenager, you'll understand why it's so important.

- Don't try to reason with me when I'm having a tantrum. Trust me- I can't hear you over my own screaming.

- Don't keep asking me if I've been good. I'm not even sure what that means, but if I was bad I'd never admit it!

- Don't let me think that you're perfect. I feel a lot better knowing I'm not the only one who makes mistakes sometimes.

- Set limits. I can't actually eat a whole box of cookies- I just want to see if I'd get away with it.
