A Time To Kill


I love timers. Because of my C.A.A.D.D. (Child Activated Attention Deficit Disorder), I use them everywhere! The kids each have one in the bathroom for brushing their teeth. Set it for three minutes and mom doesn’t have to stand there and tell them when they may stop brushing. We have one at the computer for taking turns and limiting time.

I use the oven timer when Mommy, I mean the kids need a time out. Sometimes I even set it when I am afraid I will forget to go pick someone up! It works for me! Now head over to Rocks in my Dryer for Works for Me Wednesday and see what works for everyone else!

Hi there- my husband uses a timer a lot when it's time for the kids to clean their rooms. Can they beat the clock? Makes it all ever so much more exciting. I love the pictures of your kids at the museum!

I mom, therefore I blog.
