[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 397168, member: 1233"] Sounds like things went really well. Holidays are often really difficult days for our kids because the changes in routine pile on top of excitement and anxiety. The fact that difficult child didn't get yelled at when most every other kid did at some time or other is a HUGE deal! Speaks of real progress in controlling herself, so I hope she can be proud of herself!! Cleanup is always tough. Wanting to clean up before taking the gift out of the box is cute!! Reminds me of one of my cousins. His first 2 Christmases wound up taking 2 entire days to unwrap all his presents. What took so long was that each toy had to be unwrapped, explored and then introduced to all his other toys (I do mean ALL of them, lol) and he had to explore how they worked with or fit in with the other toys before he was able to move on to open the next gift. It literally took him almost 14 hours of doing this to get them all opened. I hope that you can have a low stress day today. [/QUOTE]
