You've made your bed, now lay in it, kid.

We're working on life skills at home this summer.  The past few days, Noah has regressed in making up his bed. I have showed him the steps again. Then I talked him through the steps. Today, I just told him to make it himself. He kept saying he can't.

My response was to give him a big hug and say "I believe in the power of Noah. I believe in you." I was pretty proud of my words encouragement, until Noah shot back with "I'm tired of your beliefs, mom."

Yes, I had to stifle some laughter. I walked away and Noah finally made his bed.  Victory is mine!
