Fresh

Today I am grateful to start anew. I just got home today from watching my brother's children. We had a lot of fun and I learned a lot about what it takes to be a mom of six kids and if I really want to do that. If I can be as organized and my children as disciplined as those four were, I think I can make it. I just need to do it gradually, not all at once. But now that I am home, I am excited to start anew with my schedule (even though it will all get messed up next week when I staying with my mom while Matt is on a road trip with his brothers). I guess it is really going to be implemented in two weeks, but I am going to spend the week planning it out and making it something the children and I can do. After watching the supernanny for a couple of months now, I have realized how much I really need to do this. I have two very great kids, and in order to keep them great, I need to step up to the plate a little more. I am looking forward to planning out a learning schedule for Beckett. I have a friend that started a blog about this very thing. I love it! It has really helped me to come up with how to teach Beckett, which has been something that I have really struggled with. I have been asking my mom for ideas as well. If any of you other moms or elementary teachers have any ideas on teaching toddlers or creating a routine. I would really appreciate it. This will be a good step for me as a mom. I am grateful to start anew.


P.S. I am sorry to disappoint you all, but I am not going to make up all those days that I missed. I know, it is horrible news, but I can't really remember the last few days, so I am just going to let it slide.
