Mornings at our house

Sally: You have been getting ready for twenty minutes. And all you've done is put on pants.

Juniper: [growls] IT'S NOT!!!!!! I peed!! And I put on underwear under my pants!!!


We tried a new game/motivational technique of timing how long it took the girls to get ready this morning.With adults, tracking and measuring things typically leads to improvement. I wonder whether the same is true for children. At the very least, they were excited by the stopwatch and thrilled to hear their time.

Not including breakfast: 42 minutes and 19 seconds. (At 40+ minutes, breakfast was a banana and some peanuts eaten at the bus stop.)
