Morning Advice from a Friend

A good friend once tipped to me that she doesn't give her children breakfast until they are dressed. I decided to give that a try in my home and it has worked like a charm. I've added that they have to have their bed made as well. It works wonderfully and if they don't get breakfast before going to preschool.....well..........it's because they neglected their little "responsibility." I love it. In fact, I love it so much that I'm now adding their morning chore: unloading the dishwasher.

Anyway, it helps me keep my mornings nag-free (on my behalf only!) because they already know what they have to do in order to fill their tummies!
