I want to praise you

I was reading the other day how another study had been completed demonstrating another way we parents are failing when we think we are doing the right thing...too much praise, tsk tsk tsk. Apparently it messes kids up. Swell. I've decided to stick to my guns, I think we've got a pretty good thing going. Check out the praise crew we've got in the can:

Love this! The enthusiasm of a little sister. Although Briar seems pretty intent on not looking at that camera. Sweetness! :)

Very cute - and aren't we always messing up in so many ways (if we listen to the "experts")?

I like her tactics: direct, to the point, and followed up with a lovely little hug.

Can I borrow her when Elyse starts potty training?
