And sometimes we need to listen to what we say to ourselves (no we don't play, we don't sing and dance and explore). find something that works well with Rebe is entering into the imaginary game, but not by being bossed into a role, but by choosing my own within the game. For example, No I'm not going to be a customer in the cafe...I'm going to be the old granny knitting here in the corner and you can look after me... That is a good way of carrying on with what you're doing without having to say no to play. can't wait for the hols, when we can do some getting together x xxLaurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16646760896578776857noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8935975561680117519.post-74254868077508227872011-06-21T20:31:46.183+01:002011-06-21T20:31:46.183+01:00Like you, I wrote that quitting note in my mind a ...Like you, I wrote that quitting note in my mind a million times, but, yet again, another day dawned. It always will. Nice to see you are making it work. I once did something similar, a 'yes' day, where I never said no to anything my kids wanted. And, surprise surprise, it did not go to bad.

Not sure why I don't do it every day?Karienhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07030460465762682810noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8935975561680117519.post-73099624978444282392011-06-21T19:59:42.997+01:002011-06-21T19:59:42.997+01:00Really like this idea and will be remembering it m...Really like this idea and will be remembering it myself tomorrow.
