Warm Fuzzies Project

Lately, it seems my adorable little angel children of mine, have gone down the sibling rivalry road and.......they're making me crazy. They are constantly fighting about everything and Whitney is really pushing her boundaries with Wyatt. Sooooooo before I whip out the "get-along-shirt", I'm attempting another Pinterest parenting project. And that is the introduction of the Warm Fuzzies Jar. The idea is “Whenever we see the kids playing well together, are loving towards each other and/or something helpful or kind, we place a pom-pom ball in the jar because kind and helpful acts make people feel good, like a warm fuzzy. Once the jar is full we will treat the kids to something special that they decide on (with parental influence of course). Wyatt wants to go roller skating and Whitney wants to go to Chuck E Cheese. Tough call........NOT, Skating it is........as soon as we have a full jar. So the day we started this we put one warm fuzzy in and then 5 minutes later pulled a warm fuzzy out. Blah!!! However, we are working on the process and it really does seem to change how the kids behave and treat each other. Hopefully, I'll be posting pics soon of their reward!
