We have a family cheer. It pretty much consists of the following sing-songy phrases:
1. GO MARINOS!!
2. HEY HEY MARINOS!!
3. YAY MARINOS!!
The family cheer is an incredibly effective war breaker in our house. Lucia can’t contain herself when I bust out one of those spread eagle cheerleader jumpy things in our kitchen, and we all laugh at Adrian’s interesting pronunciation of our family name (Hermino).
Sometimes these kiddos make me cheer inwardly. Today was one of those days.
Winning. Most definitely, winning.
Viva la Violette
Soooooo cute!
I am so gonna remember that when my 3yo has meltdowns; what a great mood changer for everyone!
It is pretty ridiculous, but it usually does the trick! Art and water play work wonders on the crank-factor around here too!
This pic belongs in a frame or a magazine!! ADORABLE!! LOVE it!
I'm going to try a cheer with my family. Great idea. Beautiful picture of the kids.
