Tonight we had a small victory as it relates to homework.  Younger Boy was SUPER far behind in homework.  He actually did homework for two and a half hours.  I believe we are actually caught up.  I can hardly even believe I am saying that.

It wasn't without struggle to get started.  Younger Boy is INCREDIBLY rude when we talk about homework every evening.  There is no point to it.  I asked him why he insists on being rude to me every single night when I ask about homework.  I asked if he thinks that makes life in our home go smoother.

Right now I am going to just celebrate the victory of actual homework completion.  The attitude will come later...I hope.

Praises for small victories.
