Oh boy! So I don’t know how to discipline. I’m really bad at it. My husband is the tough one here! How do I change, make rules, keep to them. And still show love?

I think the most important thing is consistency, so whatever rule you do decide to make, enforce it and don't change your mind no matter what. I have a difficult time with this but try my very hardest not to give into the kvetching and stick to whatever decision I've made or rule that I've decided on.

I don’t punish, and I am a pretty strict discipliner. You can have it both ways.

let's say kid come out of bed (after was put to sleep/had Shema/drink etc.)
I will say things like, "I love you so much, and I'm sorry, but if you don't jump into bed Mommy will need to put away the markers for a day" or Mommy won't be able to pack you wafers for tomorrow.
for a young kid, "punishment" doesn't have to be so major. just taking away a privlege (wafers, markers) that they can and will get at a later point is totally enough!!
tell yourself you are doing your child a major favor by setting boundaries at this point in life!!
