Passing Notes

Occasionally my children do not get along.  The little one tends to stir the pot.  But the biggins tend to not listen to him when they play.  It is a give and take situation.  I try to get them to (1) recognize their role in the conflict and (2) find creative ways toward resolution.

I just ran across a couple of notes written by the biggins and addressed to the littl'in.

I love you Little C!

from,

Miss M

P.S. Please don't sit on me

From: Big C

To: Little C

Please don't sit on me!

P.S. Don't sit on me!

I appreciate that they try new ways to reach him.  He can read and all so the notes were a good idea.  I also like how the actual message completely reflects their attitudes toward the boy.
