When I STOPPED being a SUPER MOM

I transfer my energy from DOING everything for them...to...TRAIN them to do everything for themselves



#1 it requires...
... greater energy
... greater patience
... greater understanding
... greater compassion
... greater perseverance
... greater love


#2 i learn to...
... make friend with the mistakes
... make peace with the failure
... make a good term with laziness



#3 my daily menu has changed
it used to be physical activities then changing to emotional control and expectations management


just like today...



Calvin made a cup of hot chocolate then he just ignored the dirty table and continued to enjoy his drink







this picture gives me 2 options:

1st. clean up everything
this way used to be hard to deal!
not until I have the 2nd option


2nd. train Calvin to clean it
this means: apply the SOP...

1. calling him many times
2. showing - pointing - explaining his mistake
3. make him understand: that is his responsibility, not longer mine!
4. deal with his "anyhow" cleaning
5. make sure he understand cleaning as responsible


a few minutes later...

the same mistake happen
. at different places
. with different stuff


... repeat the SOP again!


option 2 makes me understand how easy option 1 was...but...i need ti move on

my super mom's mode has changed!


only and only...by playing along with option 2

I prepare the children to run their own future!


option 1: the end!
option 2: ON!



fight!!!


I want to enjoy the battle before option 3 take place


now i can understand a tiny bit how God sees me when i sin against Him over and over again...yet...He showing His mercy and grace over and over again


I'm quick to anger but He is slow to anger
