Today I am celebrating it's worth.
Sundee came home from school 2 weeks ago begging for a hair feather. "Everyone's got one"
And she's almost right, the percentage is pretty high. I wasn't too sure so I used a good standard line, "ask Dad." He said no.
Later that evening as we were sitting watching tv, Sundee displayed a habit that lets just say she's had since just after she was born. We have tried countless different tactics to rid her of this. All to no avail.
The lightbulb went on, and I issued my case. She stops and she can have a hair feather. "Ok I've stopped she said" We made it 2 weeks and she agreed.
Basically I kind of forgot about this quite quickly. We have movie nights on Fridays and she was quite squirmy, not as relaxed as usual. Her very loved friend wasn't lying around for me to kick back into her bedroom, she was a little more grumpy and was waking up a little earlier. Suddenly it hit me. She had stopped her bad habit. It was working.
She is a determined little thing but I really didn't think she wanted that feather so much.
Three cheers for her I must say. Last night she said to me " you know I don't even think about "it" (her habit) anymore"
So here she is with her "feather in her cap".
