Lesson Plans ... Scratch

What is a homeschool mom to do when she unexpectedly gets a little bundle of joy to babysit all day? Cancel all bookwork and schedule in some life-learning in the area of "child development". That's justifiable, right? :)

One More Why

I have one more "why" to add to my list (see 2 posts below).

Why on earth would the oldies radio station be playing "Kokomo" by the Beach Boys ???? I was in grade school when that came out. It jogs memories of Uncle Jessie on Full House singing it with the Beach Boys. I am not old enough to hear songs I remember coming out on an OLDIES station!

Awards

















On Sunday Annie received an award at her first little awards ceremony for Kid's Club at church. She got it for memorizing her monthly Bible verse. Its so much fun being a proud mama. :)

Why?

Why is it that before I had 2 children I was always early, or at the very least on time and now it is next to impossible for that to happen??? No matter what time of day, we always make it out the door about 10 minutes past when I wanted to leave. There is nothing more frustrating for me!

Why is it that I feel like I am CONSTANTLY cleaning out my pantry and fridge?

Why was I super excited to go grocery shopping today? Was it because I worked hard on planning my shopping according to the store sales or because I clipped several great coupons knowing I'd save a ton of money ($83.09 to be exact)? Those are great reasons, however, I ask why does going to the grocery store actually excite me, at all?? Is that as ridiculous as getting a great new vacuum cleaner last September being the highlight of that month?

What are some of your whys?
