Oprah has her aha moments that are deep and life altering. I am not that deep and don't have time to alter my life. I have a different kind of aha moments...I am so dumb, why did I not do this years ago moments. Here are two moments I have had this month.
#1 A plastic cereal container for trash...I don't like finding wrappers stuffed and left everywhere. I tried those cute material ones but those did not work for us.
#2 I was watching Dr Oz and he was talking about not sharing towels because of bacteria. This sparked my idea...I don't care about bacteria but I don't like finding towels left on the bathroom floor or finding my towels missing from my bathroom. So, I got each child their own color towel. They can only use their color and if it is on the floor I know exactly who gets to come get it. Brody picked green for Hulk. Now, they are so protective of their towel and totally take ownership. I was so dumb. Why did I not think of this years ago?
