playing school/Ms. Tricia

Rachel put my reading glasses on (yes I know) and decided that she was Dr. Mom.
5 min later, she was the teacher Ms. tricia and read us a book.

Rachel: they are 2 rules. Thte first one being that you have to raise your hand if you want to ask a question. The 2nd one is that you have to keep quiet.

I asked a question without raising my hand and I was sentenced to go and sit on a chair on my own (which I did not do). Sometimes I really wonder if her eacher is so tough...

how to speak to Heidi

mom: Heidi, NO. Stop that, come here
Rachel: maman, speak softly to Heidi. Just say "Heidi please come here"

dressing up/ Rachel to the rescue

Natalie loves to dress up and of course to undress. You'll find her wearing different sets of clothes during the day. The winner is of course her princess dress.
The morning ritual is a little bit more hectic for dad since Natalie refuses to wear this or that, then cries, then asks for help, and then refuses your help since she wants to do it herself.
Rachel is been playing the big sister. She speaks calmly to Natalie and miracle, she lets her sister help her.
Thank you Rachel
