Noah had a few hard days which took it's toll on me. Rewarding him was the last thing I wanted to do. He has been asking for those shoes with wheels on them...heelies. I continued to say no, that is until I saw that everyone had brand new "back to school shoes." After school, I took him for "back to school shoes." I made it clear that these shoes had nothing to do with his unacceptable behavior...rather, everyone needs new shoes when a new school year starts. JOY was watching him select just the right pair of shoes...even the employee said that he picked out shoes that matched his personality. He was grinning from ear to ear and I knew that he was experiencing JOY. I cannot begin to write how happy that made me. (Heelies are not as easy as they look...Noah would need to practice.)
JOurneY on ( and for Noah, in a new pair of shoes.)
