What is this? you may be thinking to yourself. Well this, my friends, is the next ticket to anything you desire your little one to do. This is called the Power Box. For those of you who know my little Anna, you know that at times she can be shy, very shy. We have had a hard time persuading Anna to do several things: ie. Nursery, going to sleep by herself at night, staying in Dance class by herself.
*You will notice that all of our examples are doing things without Mom or Dad.
About a week ago Anna and I made and decorated her very own Power Box. Anytime she does something that takes courage, (or in this case power) she gets to put her hand in and pick out a surprise. It works like a charm. She is very motivated to try to be brave. If any of you are having a hard time with anything, try it! I promise it will work!

What a great idea. Way to go Anna!
That is a great idea! However, I think Mason would need to be rewarded for the opposite behavior. Thanks again for having us over last week. It was so fun to catch up and see your new darling house. Let's get together again soon!
