Dance and check in

Clock in on the 21st day.

The first habit cycle is completed in 21 days and a habit is formed.

The second cycle is to consolidate habits.

The third cycle, lifelong benefits.

I hope that as Mom, I can persevere. I really feel that as long as Mom is ruthless, nothing will be a problem.

When Chen Xiao C was 3 and a half years old, he shouted: I want to learn to dance. I went to visit Huali Dance School, but the school persuaded me to come back when I was older, preferably 4 and a half years old.

I couldn’t resist Chen Xiao C, so I took him to register when he was four years old. At first, he was so happy that he shouted every day: I want to go. I really thought she had followed her father, her limbs were soft. (Her father came back to teach the kindergarten rhythm activities, and I only taught handicrafts and recitation.)

After one semester, she was very happy, so I discussed with her to enroll in a year-long class. In the second semester, Chen Xiao It’s not that C doesn’t like dancing anymore, but he starts crying every Friday: Mom, today is Friday, and tomorrow is Saturday, I have to learn to dance, what should I do? This made Mr. C very reluctant to let go, and I was also helpless. I thought to myself: Could it be that I was born just like me, and my brain and limbs are always not on the same channel?

Being late, angry, crying, praising her, trying every means to survive the semester.

We encountered an epidemic again this year, and all off-campus training classes were suspended. The school arranged a circle of friends to check in. I thought I should stick to it. I don’t like it. If the school suspends classes again, I probably won’t want to go again. Will the remaining six months of tuition be in vain? Be cruel and squeeze in a little more time to check in with her.

Sometimes I asked her to teach me how to "roll a cake". She said: Mommy, your cake is across a river; teach me how to "make a small airplane". She said: Mommy, you can't fly. Get up; teach me the "next word", she said: Mom, why are you a check mark? I wasn't angry either, I just asked her to continue being my little teacher.

On the fourth day of check-in, the attentive teacher Zhu Zhu discovered the problem and promptly informed: The big frog seemed to have become a crooked frog. I gave her feedback and she was forced to take a photo and send it to her. The patient teacher Zhu Zhu said again: The body is straight, but the legs should be at 90°. I gave her feedback again, and she said: Mom, let’s take another photo and send it to Teacher Zhu Zhu. I did as I was told. Teacher Zhu Zhu took the trouble to say that the movements were basically standard and praised her. She smiled happily.

After about 8 days, she no longer objected. I said to clock in, and she came over immediately, cooperated, and then did her own thing as if nothing had happened.

On the 14th day of check-in, Saturday, she said: Mom, it’s Saturday again, when can we go to school to dance? I miss Teacher Zhu Zhu a little bit. On the 16th day, she took the initiative to check in with me. On the 17th day, after checking in, I had to take a look at it myself, and asked to delete the photos I was not satisfied with and take them again. On the 20th day, her sister asked her to go out to play. For the first time, she refused to play on the grounds that she "had to check in first."

Today is the 21st day of the habitual cycle. It is Saturday. School has not started yet. Tencent Conference is in class. She also actively cooperates, talking and laughing, looking relaxed and happy.

Fortunately, Teacher Zhu Zhu has been encouraging her, and fortunately this circle of friends has checked in. I was almost ready to give up and try "Latin dance" instead, and then "I don't want to dance", and then "just follow it." Her mother was born unable to dance," and in the end, "I will never have anything to do with dancing in my life."

Come on!
