Teaching Manners

I mentioned in my last post that I needed to start reading some books so I can discern a way to effectively teach Sam manners. Well today at Target I found this book. It goes over please and thank you, excuse me, table manners, etc., etc.

I figure she loves princesses and if they can help us teach her how to be polite I can learn to love them too! Of course we will continue to do our part but don't they always say that together as a team you can do more? It can't hurt.

Training: last night I made it to the pool to swim at 9 pm. I quickly discovered that swimming on an empty stomach is not a good idea. It served as a reminder to take some chomps with me to the race start on Sunday.

This morning I ran two miles on the treadmill and I think we might try to do a little swim in the lake tomorrow and then training will be officially done!
