...To Genie Blue Train...
...and Tigger.
We have a brilliant (thank you Jenna) system in our house to elicit positive behavior. It is called the "black rocks". Whenever the boys demonstrate positive behavior (sharing, eating well, no fighting while mom's in the shower...you get the idea), they earn a black rock (or 2 depending on HOW good the behavior). Once they earn enough black rocks to fill up their treasure chest, they get a treat. In the past it's been a trip to the zoo, picking out a toy at the toy store, but this last black rock treasure chest went towards 2 very finicky, shy fish. Trey and Caleb were beside themselves as we walked into Petsmart this week with some minor criteria in mind; Trey: HAS to be BLUE, Caleb: feeshee!!, mom: no filters, no heaters, no lamps. Now that our beloved Tigger and Genie Blue Train are home safe at last, we're battling a new set of criteria: mom: DON'T TOUCH THE FISH!! DON'T FEED THE FISH! DON'T PUT ANYTHING IN THAT TANK OR THE FISH GO BACK TO THE STORE (or in the toilet - depending on what it was and how long it was there).
1 love notes:
Those names are awesome. Treyden must of picked the "Genie Blue Train" name. How fun!
