The clean slate

May 21, 2012

Today begins a new week for the *Lost and Tired* family.  Something that I don't know that I have ever mentioned before is my approach to each day.

Basically,  we start every day with a clean slate. This was started mostly for Gavin but has since been adopted by all of us.

When Gavin would have a really bad day,  I would reminder him at bedtime,*"tomorrow is a clean slate.  All the mistakes and less than good decisions of today,  will be washed away while you sleep."  *

It seems to help and I think it sends a relatively positive message to our kids,  at least for now. :-)  I have adopted this attitude myself or rather I try to adopt this attitude.  It allows me to forgive myself for not being able to do better for my family.

**Thanks for reading**
