Maybe I didn’t make myself clear.

So, Maddie—who will be 7 in less than a month—says to me after Maya’s timeout: "Ohhhh, it’s like you’re trying to teach us something."

Huh?

"You tell us not to do something, and when we do, we go to timeout. It’s like you’re trying to teach us not to do it again."

Yes. Yes, it is. It's just like that.

What a wonderful "aha" moment. She gets it, she finally gets it! Hurrah!

7 seems to be her "aha" age. I expect great things this next year.
