Test...

This is a test....with more to come. I haven't posted in very long time. I guess still on the fence on some of modern journally, tech adv ances. Partly thinking," hey this is awesome, this something for me, don't care if anyone sees it". If anyone likes what I have to say, what if I make someone mad. I always thought that journally was supposed to be private. And I don't know how to do this blogging thing... But I'm going to go for it and see what happens....I once was pretty good writer so hopefully that will come back, it's been a very long time.

There is no do-overs but there is redemtion

Recently a young man (teenage boy) that Natasha sees almost everyday came to her and made a very heart felt apology to her.

Then we listed things that needed to be done like brush teeth and glued clipart next to it. Continued with the list. Then I laminated them leaving a little extra room at the bottom (I used two pieces of laminate paper so I would have the extra room). Then we used little wooden stars that we let the girls paint and velcro dots from the fabric dept. We put one side of the Velcro next to the clipart and the other on the back of the stars. Then I put another row of velcro at the bottom to hold the stars when they weren't next to task and the task was complete. The girls love them, the velcro makes a sound. There are no stickers or markers to keep up with. And they learn to take responsibility for themselves without me nagging a thousand times to get ...
