Dr.Suess and Hardcore Discipline
Today, Isaac and i were teaching Gwendolyn about rhyming words, and she loved it. We talk a lot in the car, the kids and i, and i was telling her how to rhyme words and she picked it up instantly...most times she's in too much of a whirlwind to listen, but in the car seat she can't escape! And then she asked me about Green Eggs and Ham, implying that there are rhyming words in it. We read that often...always Dr. Suess and those wild range of characters. Those were my favorite books when i was kid, I've always been fascinated with rhyming words, it's a part of me. It's real cool.
Oh, and we also learned that Gwendolyn can clean up her own messy room, and all i had to do was be there to direct here, keep her focused. I said "who cleaned the room?" "me and you, daddy." "nope, i didn't touch anything, you did it by yourself." And a high five was in order, then she cleaned the living room of her stuff too. And all it takes is a little bit of time.
Thanks Dr. Suess
Teaching her the best things in life, pride in your accomplishments and Dr. Seuss. =] I love these little looks into your life.

ReplyDeleteI think I'm one of those rare people who got annoyed by Dr. Suess.
ReplyDeleteI can't even imagine having a daughter, it makes me understand my mother a little better.
