Keep Your Eye On The Prize


The prize...Spider Man dive sticks for the pool. We were at the pool the other day and someone had left some dive sticks. Millie had a ball playing with them and she asked if she could have some. When I was out over the weekend, I found Spider Man dive sticks. When she got back from Indiana, I showed them to her but told her should could not get them out and play with them until she went through all her words without one mistake. I really thought she would have earned them by now. She knows all the words but always misses just one. She gets so excited and goes too fast and will miss one. I really want to cave in and just give them to her but I am sticking to my challenge. She understands and she is always willing to try again right away...yep...because she knows she will get them all if we do it immediately. I make her wait several hours at least and she gets 2 chances a day. If she does not earn them tonight, I may give her 3 chances a day since we are going to the pool on Sunday.
