A 60 Second Cure

Good afternoon viewers! It has been quite a crazy day today, but I sure didn’t want to pass up my blog post due to that.

Today, I want to key in on my “Rosie”. There is one specific area I want discuss because it’s something that I can’t seem to put my finger on (just yet).

So you know Lovèah Rose is 17 months and she is of course all over the place! She’s just a busy little mama lol! She’s curious about everything, she’s not a picky eater, she’s very playful & happy, she loves her siblings and usually plays well with all of them, until just recently.

I don’t know what is going on, but Rosie keeps atttacking her 6 year old sister Rèinah for no reason. She throws toys at her, runs up to her (if she’s sitting on the floor) and pulls her hair… and I mean she yanks her hair! She hits her, grabs her skin at times, like it’s pretty bad. Sometimes, it brings poor Réinah to tears! It’s confusing because Lovéah is a sweet baby!

I don’t want Réinah to have any negative feelings towards her baby sister. I want her to love her no matter what. So what I’ve been doing when Lovéah attacks her is, I would tell her no-no, you be nice to Réinah… then I would have her hug her immediately afterwards. Sometimes this works, other times it can be a thumbs down. So today, I decided to pull out the the 60 second cure…

Today, I introduced Lovéah to her time out bench. We had this bench when Jeremiah was little & we knew it would come in handy. I’m so glad we didn’t throw it away! So, we’ll see how this goes.
