Day 150 - Thursday 29th May

"The flower that blooms in adversity is the most beautiful and rare of all" - Mulan

I don’t want to tempt fate but I think my little flower Zoë is blooming in her behaviour with the aid of the sticker chart. I really was getting to the end of my tether with Zoë and her naughtiness even on the simplest of things like brushing teeth etc. However since we started the sticker chart, which was 2 weeks ago today, her behaviour has improved no end and normally just a little “You won’t get a sticker” makes her do whatever it is that you are asking of her.
At the end of each day, before bed time we do the chart and she gets all her stickers. She loves getting a big star which I stress to her is only if she has done something really well and so if she was not quite so good she only gets a small star.
This photo was taken last week on the completion of her first week – she was very proud of it.
