I was just telling someone I believe God gave me boys to let go of perfectionism. All these things you mentioned about accepting their silliness and laughing with them is where I struggle. I’m not homeschooling, yet. My boys are just 2 and 4 but the plan is to start this fall. I needed to hear this message, I need to remember they will happen during “school” just like they already happen and to be ok with them.
Oh girl....that's good! I can say that I totally agree and can see that to be true in my life as well!
Just turned 30. And just gave birth to my sixth son, my oldest being 8. I knew I wanted to homeschool before I even got married (never did I imagine I would be the only female in my family 😂) but it has been the biggest joy to be able to be the one to teach them and watch them grow. I, too, want to raise respectful, responsible, honorable, and godly men. It is both terrifying and yet so exciting to be the one (along with my amazing husband) who God has put that responsibility upon. I have such a long way to go with my patience, it is a daily struggle, but I am so grateful they are mine 🥰
I'm legit loving this. BOY MOMS UNITE! 💙
YES GIRL!!!!!!!!💙
finally someone who has a channel about homeschooling boys! i have 3 boys under 11. this is so important and so different from schooling girls. i have nothing in common with girl moms and it has become frustrating. I'm glad you are here helping us boy moms!
Praise what they’ve done right, laugh with them, always! Thanks for joining me, Jamie!!
Thanks for hosting, Rian! 💗🤗
“Just put food in them, works every time.” Yes!! 👏🏻👏🏻🙋🏼♀️
🤣😂💯
“Everybody falls off the wagon and I have to bring all my little ducklings back :)” That’s good :) Good reminder to just laugh with them in the middle of the day.
I like the idea of fishing with another man as nature study. Simple, yet brilliant!!
I grew up only girl with 3 brothers, now I have a son of my own.. safe to say I was prepared for this 😅😂
Thank you soooo much. I grew up with 2 sisters and never knew how boys grow up. I've been trying to raise my son the way I know how girls would......this is what I've been missing all along.
Everything you said is so true!
My heart sometimes still pings for a girl but my 3 boys are so amazing! It’s a blessing I never realized I needed, especially learning how to laugh and not be perfect.
I can totally relate.
Food all the time... check
Poetry Studies ... nope... check
Outside school... check
Boy Humor ... check... check
😍😂😍😂 YES, MAMA!!!!!
Your a good mother 💐🌹🌸🌺🌷❤
Awwww, THANK YOU.😭❤❤❤❤
Jesus-loving, respectful, hard workers... yes yes yes!
First and foremost!!!!
As a mom of 3 boys, I really appreciated this video!
Aw, I'm so glad you found it encouraging! 💗🤗
Mama of 8 boys and YES to everything you said! I also of 5 girls, girls are so different than boys in my experience homeschooling.
My first year homeschooling 4 boys. 2nd grade, 4th, 9th and 11th. Thanks for this 💞
Thank you for this! It made me tear up! I am daily struggling to just do life with my three boys and even more to homeschool them, and feel like I am going against the grain sometimes. It's a journey. Thanks for sharing.
I already see a lot of work ethic in my 2yr old son. He wants to help, work, and follows his grandpa and dad everywhere when they are working outside. He builds all the time and then has dinosaurs destroy it all. He's very different from my 2 girls ❤️
That's so awesome!!!!!!!😍
I have two silly boys, just as you mentioned their language, jokes and activity level is out there, only mom with boys could understand. Thank you for this video. I thought I was the only one the kids were not crazy about poetry and picture study. My boys love to be in nature but not so much just the picture, they feel that I am quizzing them when we do picture study, maybe is me not doing it right. Thank you for letting us know how it is for you; I sometimes feel that I'm doing something wrong, until I hear other mom of boys opening their heart ❤ like you just did.
Right on! I already homeschooled three boys and one girl and now I am homeschooling one boy. They are so different. One of boys hated sitting in a chair, sitting still wasn't even an option, so he did a lot of school on the floor while tapping his pencil and petting the dog. Lol. That kept him from irritating his sister with the constant noise of tapping on the desk. LOTS of movement is involved in homeschooling boys. They are such a blessing.
We take week-long fishing trips at least once a year with my grandpa. It’s always the highlight of our year!
Rian, that is awesome! How fun and what a time full of life and memories!!!!!!
So good, Jamie, thank you! Mom of 3 boys and 1 girl :) ages 4-9.
🙌🏼boy mom…you nailed it girl:)
All boy mom here too. Both Grandpa’s live too far to spend a day fishing 😭 however, I just found a female fishing guide and I’m going to have her teach me to fish so I can go out with the kids. They all sort of know how to fish but we need some guidance. Especially because I want to learn how to fish from a kayak 🎣🎣😁😁
You treasure “girl time” 🥰. You’re teaching them what a wife,mama,lady looks/ should be like🥰
Aw, thanks so much...mama! 🤗
I have 2 boys and this video helped so much. I have been driving myself and them crazy trying to "fix" them now I know I don't have to.
🤗❤
I apply much of this to my girls already but my only boy is about to be 2yrs old at the end of this month and I already see how different he will be from his sisters. I wonder how our homeschool will change once he joins. For now picture study and poetry is exciting in our school but I never paused to consider he may not be into it when he's school age. Thanks for the wisdom.
Mom of 4 boys here!!! Love my sweet, curious, messy, smart, silly boys!! ♥️🙏🏻🥰
Praise what they've done right! Laugh with them. So good. I'm a mama of four boys🙂
My girls Are in 7th and 8th. My boy is in 2nd. And they're very different. He's out bagging up pine needles lol
Hahaha! YES! That is so awesome! ❤
I’m a boy mom 💙💙💙 I have 3 sweet boys 7, 4, 1. I learned from YOU to let go of all the “cute” stuff that I imagined in my head and really only I wanted to do in our homeschool and it truly brought SO much peace to our homeschool when I let go of those expectations. They’re boys!! They want to explore, get dirty, and smelly! And I’ve learned that they learn so much more doing that than sitting down all day doing lessons they don’t want to do 🥰
Being a boy mama is the best! I have 4 here.
💙💙💙💙
Today we're hanging up sight words outside to shoot with nerf guns 😂 WHATEVER works for my dyslexic boy
Girl, that is an AWESOME idea!!!!!
I love this!!!! 💙
I'm gonna have to try the food. I have a 3rd, 2nd, 4yr and #4 on the way! They don't sit still!!! 😅
Yes to physical labor!!! My boys are 8 and 4 and they both seem to focus so much better after they've been doing manual labor...stacking wood, raking leaves, washing their bikes, shoveling snow, etc. My daughter gets annoyed; my boys get excited. Wired differently, for sure!
I totally agree on the physical work and food. So true for boys!
💙😍
Oh my goodness! I also have three boys. This sounds EXACTLY like our homeschool. It is loud, busy, lots of movement, and chaotic at times. We are at the river every single day and they need to be outside for hours which in turn helps with focus. They ( it sounds like yours also) are kind of like throw back kids, they work hard, play outside and they're happiest dirty with a pocket knife and a stick lol. Thanks for the video!
I loved the video. Mom of 4 boys here!! Couldn't be more accurate!!
I laughed & cried! This. Is. It!!! Soooo much I could comment on this, however I need to go play outside with my boys right now🤗.
GET IT. MAMA!!!!!!!❤💙❤💙❤💙 YES!!!!!
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU ❤❤
Put some food in front of them! 🙌🏻 I have 3 boys- K, preschool and a toddler. There are so many laughs and random noises during school time! The most rough and tumble boys are the sweetest at the same time! 💙
As a mama to 3 boys this is pretty spot on lol!!😆😂👍 And it’s all I know too as a parent, and I LOVE being a boy mom!☺️💙💙💙 I think one thing I’ve noticed at their ages is they like to PLAY a lot and just do their thing, whether that’s being outside, building with LEGOs, using their imagination, creating & building, drawing, books, (*cough: Minecraft), etc. With boys I feel like that need or want for a sense of control (for a lack of a better word) and freedom in what they do is ever present, and perhaps that’s true for anyone or any child. So with homeschooling I try to follow their lead or interests, take in their input, while also introducing my own input and guidance in what we do. I’m also big on letting them have and enjoy their childhood because it’s such an incredibly short time in a person’s life. They are definitely wild & free most of the time ha!🤪😅 But I too want them to be good human beings and all of my boys have some big hearts for sure.❤️ The hunger for food never ends, they’re barefoot 99.9% of the time no matter the weather, they’re constantly making messes or tearing holes in their pants, getting dirty, wrestling or laughing, playing or just doing their thing. I will say coming together and getting their interest in doing “school” , sitting down, or structure learning can be a struggle sometimes-but they are ALWAYS learning or doing in their own ways and choices. My boys are constantly doing their own little studies or projects or grabbing books or looking information up or collecting. I agree it’s important to put some focus on life skills or being good men, and I hope we always strive for that. Life with boys is fun and messy and lots of food lol, and it’s so interesting watching them grow and explore and be their individual selves. It’s definitely all a learning journey and quite the adventure together!😊
This is so true you touched on some great points thank you
You are SO right about the food, especially during math time!
Hahahah! Right?! Feed them...always! Lol! 😂
@@SimplyLivingIt Lol yes!
Momma of 3 boys here too and AMEN to what you said haha. When we did Space, they giggled EVERY. SINGLE. TIME uranus was mentioned ;) I love teaching them though even with all the BOY stuff they do. My heart feels the same as yours for goals!!! Amen momma 🙌🏼
Heaven sent. I was just thinking yesterday, which was a rough day with my three boys.... someone help me figure this out. Needed this today.
Oh sweet mama.....I feel you so much on this. We had a few rough days last week as well. Turns out, I was the issue. My schedule, my chaos....they felt it, deep. I need to prioritize some things to keep peace in our home. You are not alone! 💞Today is a new day, friend!!!! A fresh new day!!!!!!❤🤗🤗🤗🤗
@@SimplyLivingIt So nice to hear that and it just reinforces it for me because more often than not I am the cause around here as well... my unbalanced expectations and what not. Anyway, thanks for being the reflection I needed.
This blessed me. Truly, thank you.
💗🤗🌼
We have 4 sons and been at home learning for 9 years, everything you said is 100% true! Short lessons are a must!
Catching up here. Sooo needed to hear this. Your specific examples are some of the most encouraging words I’ve heard in months. Sometimes I think laughter is the best medicine, right?
❤❤❤
As a new homeschool mama of 3 boys ( 10,8, and 5)...this is AMAZING!! Thank you :)
My biggest struggle so far is dealing with defiant attitudes every time it's time to do anything school. :( This is definitely a sanctification process for all involved. On a happier note, I took your idea of getting them each a hat for their Easter basket. They LOVED them!! New tradition
Yes!! We try to keep their bodies busy!!
I enjoyed collaborating with you ladies ... yes about the food !!! Feed those men 😄 God bless you and boys Jamie. 💙
Thank you for joining in! This was a fun collab to do with you boy mamas! Heading to check out your video, now!!!!🤗💗
I only have one son I wish I had more... he was my first an easy baby and toddler easy all around till now. he is growing up and it's sad he don't need me so much. he loves taking care of his mom though he such a perfect son I hope i don't ruin our relationship going thru teenage years for first time....
yes bodily functions and lot laughter 🤣 very true. (even for my my year old girl)
I have 3 girls after him (he hates being the only boy) . my girls are 100% harder than he ever was they are way more wild crazy all over the place and into trouble every time I turn around. and their learning styles are way different as well.
Thank you for this video!!! I am a mom to 3 boys(ages 12,11, and 9). I am new to homeschooling and you have helped me see that it’s not just about the curriculum and getting the work done. You have helped me find an alternate way of homeschooling my rambunctious, silly and loving boys. I can’t wait to make changes to my second year of homeschooling.
oh my gosh, am I the only one tearing up? lol. Thank you for this message, it was heartfelt and beautiful! I'm a new subscriber and I'm inspired to be here! :)
I am so happy you're here, mama! 💗🤗
I was tearing up at the end...could you tell?🙊💞 Can't help it...they have made my heart so full. 💓
@@SimplyLivingIt I have two boys and your message touched my heart! I want the same for my boys. Here's to raising Godly men! :)
Mom of 4 boys! Love this video!
💙🤗
Also a Mom of 3 boys, and just one baby girl & this resonates with me soo much. 💕
This is everything my husband and I say we want for our sons! I want to raise men! Life skills are so important in this day. Love your channel as always sister ♥️
💗💗💗
@@SimplyLivingIt and protect! Sorry commenting and watching lol my 4 year old already knows he’s the man of the house when my husband is at work and he says I protect mommy. And food yes sister. Food is the cure all haha 🙌🏻
Loved this video! I have five kids, ranging in age from 9 down to 3...and they're ALL boys! This is our 4th year homeschooling. I enjoy your videos and this one is my favorite!
All boys?!!!!!! MAMA, THAT IS AMAZING!!!!!😍🙏💗
I love this so much! Thank you ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you for sharing this...I’ve been having a really tough time with my boys lately and I needed to refocus. This is our first year of homeschooling and my boys are 10&12 (girls 6,8&14)...be blessed!
Your goals are spot on with exactly how I wish to raise my 3 boys 🙏🏼 Hardworking, Godly Men ♥️ Thank you Mama for sharing!
💗💗💗
I have a 13 year old and wish.I could have learned this 13 years ago.
Best advice ever, food equals mood!
Hahahha! YES!!!!!!!!!!!!🤣😂🤣💯
Foooooood.....YES!!!
😂
So beautiful being a mom of all boys! 💙 I thought my 3rd was a boy for sure... so a mom of 2 boys and a little girl here (6-month old) ... but I can already tell the difference between my 2 boys and my little girl. Your family is beautiful Jamie!
💗🤗💗🤗
Spot on! Gotta laugh FOR SURE!!
🤗❤ Can't take life too seriously...right???!
Well my son is only three( and i have another one on the way ) so I haven't homeschooled really yet ... but i do notice that he is already so sweet and loves to eat!! Lol
😍
Minus fishing (because mom is vegan), I would say this applies to my boys and girls! Great tips all around😊❤️
😂❤
Thank you -- such a great reminder!
Thanks for watching! ❤
I thought I was the only one with all these issues 🤣 Stay at home, Homeschooling mamá of three boys as well.
Love, love, love this! Mom to three boys here as well, and I feel and echo every bit of what you said! 🙌🏼
Thank you for the reminder... 😀
Thank you so much! We are new to this and my oldest is a wild rowdy boy and this is so reassuring!
Great video!!! Love it!!
💙🤗
As a mom of only boys, I appreciate it this so much. ❤️ You speak so much truth. My boys have to eat, constantly. Lol They will also fight over who gets to vacuum or do the dishes. They’re 6 and 9. How long will that last? 😂
I can totally relate. I have 3 boys well now two grown man and one teenager soon to be 14. I became a homeschool mom last year so I am still learning. My son also dislikes poetry. I do have a situation all he wants to do is play games on the computer so I’m having a hard time. I feel like I’m failing at homeschooling because he was a straight A student and now I feel that he just doesn’t care about he’s education.☹️
You look a lot like Sammi from jersey shore in this video with your hair like that. Lol! Side note... mom of three boys here. The giggles are non stop about their boy humor. I totally feel that but I have a feeling you handle it better than I do 🤪
Oh my goodness, I have no clue who that is...now I need to look her up! Lol! I was just lazy and didn't curl it! 😂🤣
Don't judge me for even knowing that... shes not anyone I admire in the slightest. I watched that show many moons ago prior to marriage and children. 🤣 She always had her hair straight like that. Looks pretty. I like it! 💜
Sweet mama, lol!!!!! NO JUDGEMENT HERE!!!!!!😂🤣😂❤
your describing my son .... but also my girls....🤷♀️
I have three boys in their 20's and I have two boys home (7 and 9) I homeschool them. My older boys werent into video games till they were older, but my younger ones love their video games. How do you monitor your boys video game usage. Im lost. My boys were in public school before this year and it was easier cause they would just get their games in the evenings and on weekends.
I love raising boys and like you I know no different. Its all about bugs and building things and tearing things apart and playing in water and mud. Rough housing and giggles about the smallest things. Its so fun!
Oh sweet mama, I would love to do a video on this topic. video games have never been a thing in our home so the temptation has never been there. I'm sure if it was...they'd be all over it! ❤
TV time and game time have to be earned here. My older boy only gets to play a video game after he's read a book! Lol! And he only gets an hour of screen time each day. So he's always building trains and being creative.
Screentime is only for educational purposes here. I homeschool my 5 and 6 year old. I.E. If we are learning about erosion we'll watch a short video about it after we read that section in the book.
I don't online school, I don't give screentime for a reward. I really only use it sparingly to supplement our curriculum. No video games. All that dopamine is not good for their little brains.
I have two boys myself, and I loved everything you said here! I have to ask...how do you handle discipline and attitude issues? My oldest just turned 13 and the hormones are raging!!!!
If I let my son wash dishes or vacuum, i have made his 4 year old world a brighter place. If I give him a hammer, a nail and a board, i win mom of the year lol.
❤
Not sure what it is with boys and thinking bodily functions talk is funny 😂😂 but it’s true!! (For my daughter too 🙈)
Hahahaha! IT IS SO TRUE!!!!!!! ALWAYS! 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂
And know how to cook
Wish I had seen this for a Long time ago. 🥹❤️
