I have realized homeschooling is so rewarding. When my kids were kindergarten and pre k I tried the “circle time” and read a louds. It made us all stressed so I ditched it and life got so much better! I just let the toddler play and if they want work I give them something to color or flash cards or puzzles. As they get older the work gets harder and you have to be more intentional. I wanted my kids to love to read and be into art but they clearly were not and I had to let that go. I only make my kids read the books required by the curriculum and that’s it. I stopped trying to make them read extra. I had a box of reading books in our school room that they could read then one day I found my oldest reading one of the books on his own. I think pushing them when they don’t want to doesn’t make either of us happy. Now my kids do pick books to read outside of school time. 😀
On Sundays , I make at least 2 big breakfast and portion them out in containers and have ready in the fridge for the kids. It saves my mornings we can go straight into schoolwork
Speaking from my own experience, I recommend using your one hand to hold the bowl and the other to mix the dough :) I also put my bowl on my lap, it's easier this way. Blessings to you and your family :)
I am so behind on videos since we started school back. But I caught this one early! 🥰😍🩷 Ahh, the part with your son. How adorable, and I about cried when he stood at the door and said he will miss his dad. That was just the sweetest. 🥹🫶 I am also talking about my fall intentions in my video tomorrow. 😅😂
Farmhouse on Boone sourdough English muffins are the best they’re better than any store-bought I’ve ever tried and they’re really easy. My family loves them and we’re not the biggest fan of this sourdough bread taste

Water instead of flour on your hands helps with bread dough sticking to your hands! 🙂
Thank you for the tip! I did try that but our water has a lot of chlorine in it so I try to avoid putting too much water from the faucet🥴
It is so hard for me to get ready too! I have to force it haha! 😂
Right?! the struggle is reeeal😅

I have started back Bubke Journaling and note taking as well. I will do that, too, with a Bible verse with my to-do list! So helpful! 😅
Baha I had no idea I inspired your fall intentions. That is so awesome. I love you! You inspire me as well. You are the best! 🩷🫶
Right??🥺 I showed that part to his dad at the end of the day and it tugged at his heart strings too🥺🥺
@@ourforsurelife3334LOL yes!! I love that your videos are so restful and don’t overcomplicate things🥰
