Early Morning Resistance

Oh me Oh my. It's not a pleasant morning. Boog was too excited about his field trip to sleep and was up at 6. Now he is in rare form. Doesn't understand why he needs to brush his teeth and hair to go to the park. He is trying to negotiate and hoping that he can get down to brushing just once a day. Silly boy. How do you get them to understand the importance of teeth? Andy why does something that takes 3 minutes seem like such a chore to a 5 year old? Whats going to happen when his morning routine includes deodorant, acne treatment , any maintenance of braces (which I'm pretty sure he'll have)? What are those mornings going to be like? What about shaving? Nevermind. He's growing too fast as it is. The thought of my baby shaving is just not possible. I'll go be happy it's just the teeth and hair he's complaining about.
Have a great day!

Wow, these are my some of my thoughts as well. I just wanted to let you know that I have an award for you over at wahmresourcesite. Have a wonderful weekend!

HA! When it comes to acne treatments, my guess is he'll be more than happy to see to that. Unfortunately, the deodorant application may not be as stridently adhered to.

Hey, no worries - once he discovers girls he'll spend plenty of time in front of the mirror, grooming!

oh my girls hate brushing their teeth too. I have to nag nag nag. But my oldest just turned 12 in march and she is beginning to care all on her own. She wants her teeth white now. =D Thank god.
