Brilliant

One of my favorite blogs, A Little Sussy, recently featured an interview with her mom.

Lots of wisdom from this mama. A few tidbits:

What’s your secret to raising all girls?
To keep the emotions down with girls, I just didn’t allow it. If they fought or screamed, it was handled right then. It they argued about something, they had to be the other one’s servant for the day. Depending on the problem -- we had to serve each other. We did time out. Our tub was time out, there’s nothing to do in a cold hard tub.

Hardest thing about motherhood?
I don’t think it’s hard, it’s just time. Spreading out your time equally and efficiently and being able to getting everything done—that’s the hard thing. But I think it’s just fun. I can’t imagine doing anything else.

Amen.
