March 2012: Manners Matter!

Welcome to March!  This year is already flying by, right?  Even though Buttoned Up is doing another challenge this month (working on money and stuff around your house),  I figured I would do that on the side and do the "Manners Matter" challenge as my main theme for this month.

I got online and found a fun printable about manners that I could help my kids with.  I've always been very conscious of manners--thanks mom!--and I think they are highly important.  Why?  Because they show intelligence and kindness toward others.  Because they help you get ahead--yes, I really believe that.  Because they require you to think and become more emotionally intelligent which I am requiring from my lovely children.  This will be a fun time to get the kids involved.  Each week we'll be working on a certain area of manners.  We're starting with a fairly easy one--table manners.  I won't be starting this challenge until Sunday the 4th, simply because there are four full weeks in March starting with that date.

I'm excited to have my kids participate this month.  Looking forward to getting everyone involved!  Husband included!
