Where is the time going? I can't believe we are half-way through September! School is in full bloom and we have stopped using the A/C for about 2 days now. At first it was just at night, but now we have 2 full days without usage. Looking forward to those lower bills in Sept. & Oct. After that, the heat usually is needed.
The kids are now in 3rd & 4th grades and although they should be into their routines by now, we are still struggling with forgetting notebooks at school, forgetting study guides, etc. As a teacher, you'd think I would have been able to instill better organizational skills within them, but somewhere, things haven't worked quite as expected and items are getting lost. My solution, pull out the good old restrictions. Video and TV time will be lost if their memory fails to help them recall which books and assignments need to come home nightly. Hopefully, this will help them to get into the swing of things and decrease the "forgetfuls".
If anyone else has battled this issue, let me know what solutions worked best for you and I'll try to implement those as well. Moms: united we stand, divided we fall. LOL.
Have a blessed day and try to see some of the beauty aroung you that God is sharing for you today!
"But when the Holy Spirit controls our lives, he will produce this kind of fruit in us: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control." Galatians 5: 22
