Routines

The boys are very excited to start school. I love seeing their enthusiasm for learning. Although I know a huge part of school for them is social. Their favorite subject is usually gym, but what else do boys love. Each of the boys are getting used to their new teachers and the new routines. I also love the return to routines. Not that we didn't have any during the summer, we did. But with school comes homework and more stuff to do. I have been trying to evaluate which routines I do because everyone else does and which ones I do because they work for our family. I am trying to get rid of the extra stuff that doesn't make a difference for us. Some of the routines I have done just because I am trying to keep up an imagine, but no more!!!! Don't worry I will keep plenty busy. This is jut my way of trying to stay sane.

  1. When you figure out what works, pass it on! I am also working through all the schedules and paper and sports and lunches and homework and church etc., trying to figure out how to make sense of it all - how to get things running smoothly! Do you think it is possible?

  2. That's great Erin! I am also trying to simplify things and figure out what is really important for my family. I would also love any "pointers" if you have them in that department. I love your family picture at the top of the blog. Where are you interviewing for a job?
