Things that make life easier: these things. They're durable plastic. They're cute. They save a lot of needless pestering. They're on Prime. For young kids or even older ones... there's quite a few time increments. Easy to see how time is passing for things like brush your teeth -1min. Calm down quietly or time out -3min. Playpen time -15min. Practice piano/guitar -30min. I have times assigned to chores for the bigs - so we're sure we're giving it the needed attention and not rushing through it. They can take longer, but not shorter than the assigned time. And the timers are an easy way to make sure we're on track. I super love them, and have so many uses for them!

Brian taught the kids Texas Hold Em, and to keep them interested, something is always at stake (win dessert, win a skip a turn pooper scooping etc) this weekend Kenna won a smoothie, and cashed in today! #kennedyshea

Happy Fathers Day to my one and only Dad! I will always be grateful for his leadership, love, faithful service and discipline ❤ He has been a great example of humility and selflessness for so many years, we've lost count 😉 Whenever I think about him, my heart feels full. Love you so much, Dad!!

How Th'athers Day (Bolgerism) got its name: It's also a pretty epic parenting fail, and it was mostly daddy's fault 😉 so it makes a great dad story, perfect for the occasion. When Brooks was getting older (about 4 yrs old), he still said 'free, four, five', although perfectly capable of making the th sound in all other words. Daddy had a little you're not a baby anymore, and there is no excuse for saying free, it's THREE!! conversation with him. The message was impactful, apparently, and received loud and clear. The dear boy never said free again. He did however, replace ALL f's with th's, in all words. So now it was three, thor, thive. And thinger (finger), and th'ather (father) etc. It literally took almost another 2 yrs to fully correct this new found speech impediment, which not only he, but also his sister adopted. 😂 So now we say Th'athers Day to commemorate Daddy's obvious lack of speech development/encouragement skills 😊😬 #kidskwotesandkwips
