Last week Madi was having a pretty rough, boring, no good day. She just needed to get out of the house. I was feeling frustrated with her whining all day and kept telling her she needed to calm down. When Ryan got home from school I told him I wanted to take Madi out for some ice cream after dinner.
After dinner Madi was still upset and continued to whine.
Me: "How about we go out and get some ice cream together! How does that sound?"
Madi: "Ok!"
Me: "But first, I need you to change your attitude and be happy before we can go. Can you do that?"
Madi: "Yes, but first, I need a minute to calm down, ok?!" (*Heavy breathing in and out several times.)
