RE: One eats with his fingers / Other changes his mind all the time
Sarah, LOL, at least we'll go crazy together! Nice to know I'm not alone!
He did make his own snack today for school, but it's been a struggle to get him to help out with other things. Plus I've been trying to get him more independent in general about taking care of himself. I still can't get either one to make their own breakfast in the morning (school day or weekend). I don't mind as much on school days when we're a little more rushed, but on the weekends when there's more time, it would be nice if they could do that now and then. My older one is starting to do his own hair now though. He sometimes has crazy bed-head because he has to wear orthodontic headgear at night. I would try to remember to squirt some water on his hair and brush it down before he left for school, but now he seems to be remembering on his own every day after he brushed his teeth. I told him that I didn't want to give other kids any reason for them to tease him. So that might have sunk in with him.
Maybe those are some goals for this summer to work on with both of them!
