We finally got fed up with Hannah's junk pile of a room and one day when I went in and found the mess yet again, I totally lost it. Brian and I took away dessert and computer games for a whole month. We wrote on the calendar when the next time we would check would be. After one week we did a preliminary check and found A MESS again, so we added a week to her restriction. It was amazing how motivated she was to change things. Now she makes her bed everyday and keeps everything put away. Seth is a natural cleaner. He makes messes like crazy, but when you say pick it up and put it away, he does. Amazing! Thank goodness I only ended up with one messy kid.<BR/>Thanks for coming out to Delta to see us! It was so nice to see you guys.<BR/>Love you!Jamihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02501248492578630589noreply@blogger.com
