Hugs

Just before bath time, Peyton was having a melt down and not wanting to listen. He kept saying things like "I'm going to hit you" or " I am not going to listen to you."  In a stern (but not yelling) voice, I said "Do you know what I want to do to you?... Hug you" He just kind of stared at me for a minute. I got up to put his clothes in the hamper and he wrapped himself around my leg. He held on and hugged me for all he had. This is why I've taken this challenge and this is why I'm not giving up!!  It was so awesome!

Holding In a Yell

I just read an awesome blog entry from the gal who started this entire challenge.  It made me laugh and it also helped bring some things into perspective.  Therefore, I wanted to share it with all of my friends and family who have joined me on my Orange Rhino journey.  :)  Enjoy!
