WBD, for my friends who are just in town, is a social media manager at the University of Minnesota. He is a very talented and versatile writer who enjoys sharing his love of writing and photography with his readers. He lives in Minneapolis with his wife and son.
WBD is also a talented photographer and has been doing a lot of shooting lately at the University of Minnesota. He is an active member of the student body, and enjoys a lot of the activities they have going on. He also has an awesome collection of books that he will occasionally buy for his son.
This is my favorite time of year. It’s the perfect time to take my kids to the zoo, where I can show them all these awesome animal photos. (Okay, maybe not all the time, but it’s never too early to start that trend.) The zoo is also a great place to take them for a walk so they can see the animals for themselves. Plus, we always have a great time at the zoo before school starts.
And they have a great time, too. The boys love to spend the day with their dad. They love playing with him. They love getting him to eat all the snacks and drinks. They love being with him and listening to him talk. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve heard them say, “Daddy, I want to go to the zoo today.” And then he’d just say, “Okay, okay, I’ll call you.
You know how you tell your kids that theyve been pretty awesome? You tell them how you think their favorite thing to do is to ride on the zoo’s carousel. You say, “And you’ve been really great at riding the carousel. You’re really good at it. You always make me smile.” You tell them about the time your dad and I rode the carousel together and you told me how you thought it was cool and how you wish you could do that.
Well, that was the best, not the only, part of that statement.
Dickenson’s statement is just as amazing, but the best part of it is that it’s not just an affirmation of Dickenson’s amazingness. Dickenson is also talking about how he feels about his kids. He says that you should always tell them that theyve been great and that theyre awesome because their behavior is self-aware. That’s actually a pretty good statement, and it does exactly what Dickenson says it does without being condescending or judgmental.
Dickenson makes the statement in this video, but it’s actually pretty much the same way that many of us would make it. We all make these statements to our kids, and we all do it without being condescending or judgmental. We just need to figure out how to say it in a way that makes it feel good.
But a lot of the things we say to our kids are self-aware, because we know they’re going to act like dickens. We all know it’s the right thing to do.
