So after spending the majority of the day in his room, Josh decided to tell me that Dinner, which was left overs from last night that he loved; he said it tasked like poop.
So I took his plate from him, said he was done, and that he needed to get into the bath. 10 minutes later he still wasn't in the shower, so he went to bed and has been there ever since!
Mean while Nathan was to read a book he his teacher leant him on Great White Sharks for a since project. When he was done I told him to get in the shower. He didn't, instead he decided to show Rich something he built with lego's. So the lego's have been taken away until further notice and he went to bed right after his shower.
I know this is a transitional period of time. The boys are learning our boundaries, what they can and can not get away with. And trying our patience. I really hate being mean mom, I don't like hearing the boys cry themselves to sleep. It breaks my heart more than it hurts them. But I know I need to stay strong and don't give in! God please grant me the strength!
