Impromptu Assignment and Without Complaining!

October 16, 2012 By Thaleia Leave a Comment

Have you ever assigned schoolwork

out-of-the-blue without complaining?

I am so proud of Princess and Eldest today! I got off the pc (excited about learning more blog stuff) and asked them to do schoolwork. GASP. (Our school day was technically over and now time for housework and down time.)

And they did! Without complaining!

I asked them to think of their favorite season and tell me 5 reasons why it is their favorite. They both grabbed a piece of printer paper and off they went to do their assignment.

Without complaining!

So a few minutes later I found each one quietly in their own rooms contemplating what to write about! They both ended up picking Summer for various reasons. I hope this doesn’t mean we are in for a long school year!

Princess:
1. School is out
2. Friends to hang out
3. You can spend time with your mom and dad-(melts my heart a little gotta admit!)
4. It is not cold
5. You can wear flip-flops
6. You can swim
7. Your friends can spend the night
8. You can ride the go-cart

Eldest:
1. You can swim
2. No School
3. Hang out with friends
4. Ride go-cart
5. Video Game parties
6. Stay up late

I am not that surprised by their answers at all. Both grandparents have pools and my parents own the go-cart on 5 acres to play. They have friends they can spend countless hours with during the summer and barely get to see since those children attend public school. They both mentioned school which is sorta funny since I am still leaning to year-round schooling. (Don’t tell them, yet!)

Don’t they look so proud of themselves? What have your children done lately without complaining? Please leave a comment about your child’s experience.

One Day Till 8!

July 25, 2012 By Thaleia Leave a Comment

I cannot believe that Princess has only 1 more day of being 7 years old! Our sweet middle child. Our only girl who has taken on a little mommy role to her brothers. She is organized, creative, sometimes bossy, but has a great heart. She appears shy at first, but really is not. She was born a leader to do great things. She loves ballet and learning new things. Math comes easy for her. She likes to read but has been busy watching Angelina Ballerina dvd’s while singing and performing the ballet moves!
