As we were preparing early to go to new york for an important transaction, i was trying my best not to get annoyed. It is hard to make my kids move/eat faster so we wont be late. Normally in cases like this, i get to make sure they are prepared and ready before myself. Of course, this is the time when the kids ask me a lot of questions like, why do we have to go there early, where are we going,why now why not later etc. Finally, i couldnt help myself anymore…i just said:
i: i am trying not to get late, please help…i am tired…i havent even prepared for myself…
son: oh, we are sorry…i wish you will get a reward for this…
i: what do u mean? what reward?
son: you always get us ready, u and dad but you never get rewarded…you should be rewarded, this is hard to do…
i: thank you, i dont have to be rewarded, u and baby are the reward…please just listen and im sorry if i yell at you and baby…
son: its ok, we understand….

Thank you. Children need to learn early life is not all about reward but the power of Love is more important than any reward. So glad you are blogging again.
