Out of the mouths of mothers…

January 9, 2013 By Clare Mackintosh

Things I say too often to my children:
No
In a minute
Later
Stop that
That’s enough
Do you have to do that?
Leave her alone
Put that away
I’m busy
Things I don’t say enough: 
You’re amazing
Thank you
Let’s do it now
I’m so lucky to have you
How clever
Yes
Let’s do it together
I’d love to 
I’m sorry

What words do you say far too frequently to your children? 
What have you not said enough to them?
