Diff children diff strengths

Akshaya is my sensitive child- sensitive to the moods of other , lots of empathy , sometimes lacks confidence 

Ashwin is my resilient one- finds ways to make things work natural negotiater 

So sweet the two! Akshaya saw me lose my temper with ashwin and then later when I was discussing with my mum how to discipline ashwin more - she gently offered a suggestion- Aatha maybe you can eat dinner around 7 and then when you feed ashwin at 7.30 you won't feel like hitting him- she didn't say hitting she gestured :) I kinda whacked him on his legs for spitting dosai.,
