it's all fun and games: more of my blessings (and a daddy fail!)

sat morning, i took nate to the movies, i hit up the drive thou to grab a coffee for myself when nate tells me "mom, im hungry, dad didn't give me anything to eat" WHAT? it was 10 to 11! i called chris and asked him if he fed nate and he said |oops, i forgot. but i did feed ellie" i told chris that he owes me 5 bucks because now i have to buy him a meal. hahahaha nate enjoyed his breakfast during the movie. haha

we came home to silly pants having her snack

shes losing her baby look. i see a little girl

i was changing the monthly calendar and nate wanted a picture. this is a first. he got a color every day in january! and quite a few stickers

for nate to get a color, he has to have his books out when i get back from putting ellie for her nap, working on his calendar book/or starting it. there cant be any bad attitude, complaining or issues during the whole book time. to get a sticker, his work must be exceptional, his attitude has to be awesome...he really has to work for it.

nate has noticed that with his attitude change during school, i changed too. i want to sit with him, to laugh with him and be there for him. i am more lax in certain areas and i am more inclined to give him some special treats. its a win win.

SO glad i put the hard work in last yr and set the standard. home schooling him is enjoyable!
