Phrase of the Year - 2013



Pinterest takes up way too much of my time.  I decided to make a cute sign (using the fun chalkboard  fonts I pinned) to encourage my kiddos ... and myself.

The goal this year is for me to step back.  My kids are old enough to know what they need to do to get good grades, reach their goals, and do what they need to do without me reminding them over and over again.  I will be available to help and support, but without the need to harp.

This will be hard to let natural consequences teach their lessons, but I've got to do it to help my kiddos grow!

Love the phrase and the sign you made. It can be tricky to adjust your parenting as your kids grow up! Sounds like you're on the right track!
