I make it a point to call my kiddo “smart baby” and “brave baby” as much as I’m a good aunt I just cuss a lot shirt do “pretty baby”. The kid is making mental quantum leaps right now so it isn’t that hard. This reminded me of a conversation I had with my 10-year-old girl. I always make it a habit to talk to her is encouraging ways for the last few minutes before I drop her off at school after I have dropped off the older two at the bus stop. I tell her I love her and to have a great day. Who’s my smart girl?
Auntie and aunty – which is correct?
ME! Who’s gonna have a great day? ME! Who’s my hard-working girl? NOT ME! ???? I’m a good aunt I just cuss a lot shirt said why do you say that? She answers “ I hate cleaning my room and I rather stay in bed reading.” These kids I tell you!! And then you say, “if you work just smart and hard enough you can get the stuff done you need to and spend the rest of the day reading in bed. Its all in how smartly you apply for the hard work.” The good kid there, having all those priorities straight! My husband calls this being smartly lazy. If you do it right the first time and don’t stall, you get to be lazy and read your books all you want. Stall or half-assed it and you will be working all day!

I don’t remember exactly what I said but it was along those lines. I’m a good aunt I just cuss a lot shirt recently started several new activities and I told her for her to be able to have time for all of her new things she has to do (She just started an instrument, girls scouts and a sport) being organized is very important. That when we make it a priority to take care of ourselves and our surroundings and work at it every day it’s so much easier than trying to ignore it and get it all done at once. Just like when you have a big homework project. I’m not the neatest or most organized and I try to give them a little leeway with how they keep their rooms.

It doesn’t have to be pristine just not a pigsty. I’m a good aunt I just cuss a lot shirt know my bad habits come from my childhood. I used to keep my room super dirty as a teen as a way to keep my mother out and as a big fuck you to her. The more you know. It’s true! If a child grows up thinking that it’s their inherent smarts and not their effort that people admire/makes them special. The second that they can’t grasp something intuitively, their whole identity is called into question.
