It's Go Time !



Everyday is the same.

I get everything done in preparation for my daily big event.

I do the dishes
clean the kitchen
clean bedrooms

start laundry, fold it and put it away

Read with Elizabeth

Clean bathrooms

Make beds

Sweep and mop floors

Vacuum
pick up toys

Study my lesson

Have a little self indulgence face booking and blogging

Make a great after school treat

and, if I'm really on top of things, I will have dinner started

Then at 4:00 sharp I say to Elizabeth and Claire

(who are usually licking the beaters of a very tasty after school treat)


It's Go Time




I do all of my "work" so when this happens I can spend my whole
evening with the kids, going some more.
Doing homework
listening to funny school stories
Partying when Dad comes home
having dinner
playing little petshops and Lego's
Cleaning dinner
having snacks
Reading scriptures
brushing teeth
saying prayers
giving kisses
and saying Good Night !
Until tomorrow and the next big event.
Every day is the same! and I like it that way!

loved that red jacket. No wonder you are so skinny, that's a lot of work! And I am with you, I love a good routine! Your kids are lucky to have you as a mom. I hardly ever bake treats for my kids for an after school snack! You are my hero!

Most days I feel like I do the exact same thing as I did the day before and the day before thatand the day before that...I wouldn't change it either though. Well, maybe just a little!
