We got a package from Maryland today. Inside was a little bag of Skittles. I let the boys have some and then told them they could have more later. When I wasn't looking, they took the bag and then came back in the room a few minutes later. They brought me the bag back and Will turns to Isaac and whispers loudly, "Don't tell mom, Isaac." I asked, "What is he not supposed to tell me?" to which Will responded, "No. I wasn't talking to you. I was talking to Isaac. It is a secret."

Isaac said to me, "I can have these Skittles in my bed with me while I sleep. I'm so tired mom. I need to sleep."

They are motivated by candy...

Ha Ha Ha. These boys sound exactly like mine, right down to the Skittles (Caleb's favorite candy). If you ever get tired of them, send them our way. They would fit right in.

Skittles are the candies of the Gods. I'd lie, too, if I thought you'd be taking them away from me. -Jess

Skittles and kids. That is a good recipe for fun for us all. Motivation or not, they must work. Use them to your advantage.
