Full Of It

Image
In round two of kids saying quippy things, I bring you this dialogue from today: Me, to Human #1: "You're full of it! Do you know that?!" Human #1: "You're full of it!" Me: "You're full of bologna!" Human #1: "You're full of honey ham!!!" She may not be wrong... *shrug*  From her lips to God's ears. #AnitaVP #kidsdaythedarnestthings #4yearold #4yearoldwisdom #bologna

Worth The Listen: Simple Families Podcast

The concepts of simple living and minimalism have been conversation points and sources of inspiration for my husband and I for years now.   While we’re for sure a long ways a way in many regards, I think the pursuit to live more simply and with less is a noble and worthwhile one. Thanks to a Facebook group that I’m in I stumbled upon a pretty good podcast, Simple Families .   I love her approach.   Two good episodes are SFP 153: Simple Living + Free-Range Parenting with Big Kids [with Tsh Oxenreider of The Art of Simple] and SFP 169: Too Many Toys? .   I would say it’s worth the listen/checking out – I’ve definitely added a new podcast to follow! #AnitaVP #simpleliving #simplify #parenting

Kindergarten, Here We Come!

Image
Today, I took on a title I never would have predicted taking on – homeschooling mom.   *Gasp*   Aside from lacking many of the superficial common denominators homeschool moms often possess, I just never foresaw myself in this role.   And yet, here we are.   And here we come, Kindergarten!   Why homeschooling?   For this year, it is chiefly to meet her unique set of needs.   Perhaps this won’t always be our forum.   (Actually, no.   This will definitely not always be our forum.)   However, for now, it’s the right choice for her and we are grabbing the bull by the horns. After our first official day, of her own fruition, she blazed through the tall grass and wildflowers in the backyard, one fist held high in the air, shouting gleefully, “kiiiiinnnnnndddderggggaaarrrrteeeeennn!”   I may not be ready for my new title, but she certainly is.   You get it, girl!   #AnitaVP #kinder #kindergarten ...
