Sanity Saver and an update on Mauryn

Hello again ladies. I received an e-mail from Kristen with an update that Mauryn did get tubes in her ears last Friday and is doing well. The doctor said there was a lot of fluid and puss in there so Mauryn was experiencing a lot of pressure in her ears. She was back to her old self that evening and playing. We will continue to pray that Mauryn puts weight on and look forward to more updates.


And now for a Sanity Saver from Kristen. She put it like this:

My son Landon (age 4 1/2) drags his feet when we need to get out of the house - for any reason even something he is looking forward to. I have tried a timer and it just doesn't seem to help. I have taken him in his pj's if he isn't ready, without shoes on, etc... It just doesn't seem to bother him. I think I give him plenty of time to get ready and out the door. Any suggestions on how to spur him along??

Kristen -- here is my advice: Is there something he loves doing in the morning? (Gracie's morning would be incomplete without a bowl of cereal) Maybe have him get everything done before he does that one thing. Also maybe keep the same routine even on the days when you have nothing to do. Hope this helps! ~LISA
