On the hard days, these are the moment I try and r

On the hard days, these are the moment I try and remember. Brixton is trying a new program called Lightning Literature this year and so far it is love for both of us. Brixton is the definition of “not a morning person”, but has woken up every morning this week and taken his book outside to read to his brothers. It isn’t prompted, but they all seem to enjoy and I love watching this bond between them.
THIS is the reason we decided to homeschool another year. They may drive each other all the way crazy, but they are also each other’s best friends. I love that I get to foster this relationship instead of sending them off to spend 8+ hours away from each other every day. They try my patience on the regular, but I realize how fleeting this time is too 😭

Everyone else is posting last day of school photos

Everyone else is posting last day of school photos, but we do things a little different around here. We finished up our year in April, so we’ve had several weeks off already. We’ve enjoyed AH-MAZING weather for April and May in Houston. But all good things come to an end. The days are getting hot (and super stormy), so our outdoor fun is starting to get limited again.
So we started our school year so we can take off for a few weeks in the fall when the temps finally drop again! Now that I have a year of homeschooling under my belt, I’m going in with much more realistic expectations of everyone involved. But we do have lots of fun things planned and I can’t wait to show y’all along the way 😃

It’s been a minute since I’ve share a simple play set up. We’re still trying to find all our stuff in the sea of boxes, so coming up with something on the fly with what I have directly on hand has become second nature again 😂
I had a few calls to make and needed Silas to stay occupied for a few minutes. Found an empty laundry basket and a pack of miscellaneous ribbons from @michaelsstores and bam 💥 just a simple loop for each ribbon and he was good 👏 to 👏 go. The different textures of the ribbons peaked his curiosity and he couldn’t wait to test the feel of each one. This was also great practice for his hand-eye coordination ✔️

Another day, more rain 🌧 I think we’re on day

Another day, more rain 🌧 I think we’re on day like 12 in a row 😩 I love a good rain shower, but I’m really missing the sun and bring able to shuffle kids outside for a few hours every day 😂
We finished up our Dino 🦕 unit today though 👏👏 making lap books is probably the most fun we have with school ever. The boys reference back to them constantly, and it’s such a fun and tactile way to reinforce facts. I’m planning to add a lap book component to all of our passport to adventures books this year too. Brainstorming all the ways I can bind them together at the end to save them. Any ideas, let me know 👇

The chaos of the last week has been REAL. Everyone

The chaos of the last week has been REAL. Everyone is tired and overwhelmed and the attitudes of the boys has been out 👏 of 👏 control. So they were put on notice last night that their extended break from school was coming to an end.
I planned to let them have another week or so off, starting again in June. But this morning they asked to pull out our dinosaur 🦕 unit again, so who am I to say no 🤷‍♀️
It’s not our permanent school setup, but to get back into the routine, this was perfect this morning. We worked for about 30 minutes and then watched an episode of Dino Dana and called it a day 😉

We moved today 🎉🎉 I’m exhausted. I can’t

We moved today 🎉🎉
I’m exhausted. I can’t find anything. I feel like I’m going crazy. I can’t wait to get unpacked and have some semblance of normalcy back in our lives. And maybe not see rooms and rooms of boxes again any time soon. Or ever, honestly 😂
But, all that being said, this was by far the easiest move ever. Hiring @murraymovingco was hands down the best decision of the move. They came a couple days ago and finished packing for us and when they arrived today they busted their tails to get it finished. They handled all our stuff with care and even dealt with 4 very curious boys being underfoot like true champions.
