Throwin' it out the window!

Well, G and I must have had the same sort of day yesterday......something must be in the air or water!  My oldest son came home from school with a.t.t.i.t.u.d.e.  Not a usual thing for him - usually only happens when he is really tired which is probably what is going on now.  We had a little "discussion" before he got out of the car about the current state of his attitude and how it very quickly needed to change.  As he got out of the door, the "attitude" was still ALL over him so I told him to get back in the car and close the door.  When he was in the car with door closed, arms folded and staring at the floor, I told him to open the door and throw out the attitude.  He looked at me like I had lost my mind.  He opened and closed the door.  NOT what I was looking for.  I told him I had ALLLLLLL day to sit in that car.  "frowny face"........He opened the door, held it open and closed it again.  Told him I didn't see one single thing get thrown out that door.  "big breath".....Again.  Opened the door and sort of "flicked" his hand.  I told him "no way did you get rid of something so big with that little motion."  5 more times we did this until he opened the door, made a HUGE throwing motion, started giggling and shut the door.  BA-DA-BING!!!  Attitude was gone, we were both laughing and off we went to soccer...........Lord, give me strength.

Now if I can just do the same thing when I get tired!
Here's to throwing it out the window!
Enjoy your day,
