Old School Discipline

The boys have done great this Spring Break. Here we are Sunday evening and we are not begging for night fall so that we can put the boys to bed so that morning arrives and we can ship them back to school. We could keep this up for a while longer. But there have been a few ups & downs and my fair share of listening to a bunch of whining, tattle-tells. So tonight when Kale came crying about Lucas punching him the back and Lucas to only scream, "He punched me first!" and then Kale admitting he did it, I turned old school and pulled from the TDonn book of discipline. They had to hug it out. Now, they weren't on their knees on the front porch for the whole neighborhood to see for 15 long drawn out minutes but, by the time I had counted to 60 they were again friends on the verge of a wrestling match that promptly ended the hugging.

Notice how well they cleaned their faces after dinner. I guess that's what baths are for.
