Carli was having a rough day. Instead of harping on her for being selfish or disrespectful, I invited her to come help me finish making cinnamon rolls for Christmas morning. We talked a bit about our feelings and how to better handle them rather than lashing out. At the end of the cinnamon roll making, our attitudes were improved and Carli apologized to her sister for her earlier actions. A parenting moment win!
