oops- 3 things parents shoudl teach their kids

I got too excited with my last post. But the REAL blog hop thing is 3 things parents should teach their kids

1. To pray. I think teaching them young instills a love for prayer and for the savior!
2. To cover their mouth when they cough!~ Enough said right?
3. How to fall asleep on their own. (One I have been struggling with lately!)

  3. Yep, getting them to sleep on their own is not the easiest task. My son had a blanket we couldn't leave without because it was the only way he could fall asleep.

  10. All of those are terrific things to teach our kids. We finally learned w/#3 how important going to sleep on their own is and he is the BEST sleeper of the bunch - will put himself to bed when he is tired, sleeps like a rock, etc. We used the Ferber book which I know isn't very popular, but it taught me the reasons behind the technique and I found them valid. It took 2 nights and he was doing it. He had never slept through the night and he was 15 months old waking 3+ times a night.
