What fun it was to find pictures of Anna... whom I had taught just YESTERDAY at the Academy for Summer Camp. She's a delight, and now I have greater insight. When your kids get to Middle School, I'm going to learn all I can from you!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27767365.post-69989360779763670102008-05-11T21:32:00.000-05:002008-05-11T21:32:00.000-05:00Shyla, this is awesome.

I was taking inventory of behaviors I want to change in my 2yr old as I read through your amazing experience and humble wisdom. I sometimes forget I am the one training my child, not the other way around!<BR/>THANK YOU!Rachel Leehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03565195515364243910noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27767365.post-26029723858623669252008-05-06T08:17:00.000-05:002008-05-06T08:17:00.000-05:00Kudos to you for taking the time to share your val...Kudos to you for taking the time to share your valuable experiences!

When he first started doing this, it took about 20 minutes or more to even get out of the room, giving him a swat every time he got out and putting him right back in bed (not cuddling after the swat at that point, since I think that attention is what he really wanted- he so loves to cuddle), then had to stand outside the door for another 20 minutes watching through a crack. The next day, it didn't take nearly as long. He is still fighting it, but usually only for a few minutes for him to stay in bed, then he will sit for 5-10 minutes pouting, then finally just go to sleep. Consistency and perseverence!<BR/><BR/>I SO wish I had done the crying training thing, though... It it too late for an almost 4 yr old? <BR/><BR/>Anyway, just wanted to echo the thanks, Shyla...Wendyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06135518747464822110noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27767365.post-35753529132761471692008-05-05T06:29:00.000-05:002008-05-05T06:29:00.000-05:00Oh Shyla,I just love you and Glen and the way you ...Oh Shyla,<BR/><BR/>I just love you and Glen and the way you are raising your children.

Thank you, thank you. I am eager to get to those resources you mentioned and I appreciate you sharing what you and your husband have implemented. I feel encouraged and hopeful. We are doing what you all do, but it needs some tweaking and refining. God has answered the cry of my heart through you. Again, thank you so much.Bless you and your sweet family.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27767365.post-34500045302302361802008-05-03T02:31:00.000-05:002008-05-03T02:31:00.000-05:00And that's exactly what we do here too!
