Welcome back to Taylor Talks! Today was seriously a day from hell. There’s no other way to describe it. It was one of those days when none of the little kids could pull themselves together and it was horrible trying to shop at a store. I can’t believe how incredible my mom is; I don’t know anyone else who could keep their cool in a time like that. My mom is an amazing parent, especially when it comes to discipline. My parents agreed before they had kids that they would never hit their children to discipline them. Instead, my parents use time-outs in the corner, early bedtimes, no television or electronics, etc. For the most part, we don’t have a lot of trouble, even with all of the kids that are always in and out of my house, because no one wants a punishment, and they stop misbehaving after a warning. But dang, every once in a while, something goes terribly wrong and no one will listen.
In a store, it’s really hard because people are everywhere and it’s hard to contain the kids in one area, but my mom doesn’t take any nonsense. When the kids aren’t listening, she’ll find a spot in the store and put them on time-out right there and then, no matter who’s around, or who’s looking at the crying kids. I’m completely exhausted from this long day, and so tired of hearing non-stop screaming and crying. It lasted well after we got home and into early bedtimes. It was a rough day. I’d greatly appreciate it if you would share this blog with friends and family through your favorite social media sites. If you’re sharing on Twitter, don’t forget to tag me (@TayTayK02) and use the hashtag #TaylorTalks. Thanks! Taylor

My family has been doing foster care since I was three years old. I'm the only biological child in my family, though I now have five permanent siblings. Having nineteen siblings over the course of my lifetime has been an incredible experience, and I'm hoping that by sharing some of the ups and downs of being the only bio kid in a foster family, other foster families or people looking into doing foster care will be able to learn a bit of what life can be like. I also like to share what life is like on my journey to becoming a published author, as well as where my schooling and career choice are taking me.
