The Entitlement Trap

I am Blogging about this in hopes of getting a free copy, but in all honesty even if I don't, I already have my name on the waiting list at the library.

I enjoy the Eyre's Books so much. I think they are amazing people with amazing advice on how to raise our children. It is a crazy world we live in, I need to give them the best head start I can at home. I have found that the Eyre's books have helped me formulate plans at how to best accomplish this.

Right now I am Reading Linda's book "I never planned on being a witch." It is so insightful on things I can do to control my "inner Witch" and help my children see the "Fairly God like Mother" I am trying to be. I need that so much!!! I want them to have fond memories of home when they leave. I hope the good out weigh the bad, otherwise they may be left with the feeling that they lucked out like Hanzel and Gretel!

My kids are in love with the Eyre's cd's on Values. They are entitled Alexander's Amazing Adventures! You can hear the first story on Honesty if you go to their website VALUESPARENTING.com. Really, my kids are singing the songs from these constantly!

Here is to good books and great websites! Anything that helps me get a leg up in mothering is a God Send!

I can't believe how fast time has flown by. Honestly i get 25 years with these kids and then they will be out of the house. My heart aches so much for the passing of time. Yet, there are so many crazy stages I have yet to hit. Right now, I can totally understand why the youngest gets spoiled. You just don't want them to grow up! I love her sooooo much!
