Right Now | The Words
The things I find myself saying again and again to one or the other or both of them right now:
Take your hair out of your mouth.
Have a good day at school.
Just a minute.
I'll be right there.
Turn off the TV.
Wait, please.
Please take your dishes to the sink.
Go get your book.
Stop. Just stop.
Please be kind.
Follow directions.
Please put your shoes in the basket and hang up your coat.
Awesome job on your homework.
Inside voices please.
I'm super proud of you.
Use kind words.
I love you.
You are awesome.
Goodnight. I love you.
OOOOH, I LOVE THIS ALI.

[...] I love you Mommy. OBSERVATIONS | I’ve had this post in progress for a few weeks after I put the one together about what I say. It was much easier for me to think of things that Anna says right now than Simon. I had to actively think about noticing and remembering what he’s been saying. I think I need to print this one out so I can add to it. And in case you missed it I did a post a few weeks back about the words coming out of my mouth: Right Now | The Words. [...]

I do this one every November (just 'cause that's when I did the first one) - it's interesting to see how the list both changes AND stays the same year on year :)
