Our Universal fun day

Alyssa was having trouble keeping her hands to herself in school, so back in October we started a "reward chart". Basically we put on there things like...clean your room, be nice to your brother, put your clothes in the hamper, use your manners and good reports from school. Alyssa was excited every night when she would get a sticker, but was upset when she did not. We set up standards and would give simple rewards like getting a Slurpee or going to the library with just Mommy. Soon Alyssa caught on to the fact that if she kept making good choices she would be rewarded. We have seen a great improvement and told Alyssa that if she could make it to a half way mark we had created then we would take her to Universal. She did it!!!! We were so proud, and all 3 of us really enjoyed her special day. It was nice just the 3 of us. Ethan got to go and hang out with Grandma and Grandpa.
