He’s so happy! He slept great in the camper and was so excited when he woke up and realized dad was still here. We don’t have a lot of vacation time, but we make the best with what time we have. • • • #thesearethedays #toddlerlife #playoutdoors #freespiritedchild #littlepiecesofchildhood #intentionalparenting #letthemplay #playmatters #playislearning #natureplay

But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me. ‭‭2 Corinthians‬ ‭12:9‬ #nofilterneeded #midwestmoment #midwestisbest #findthegood #findjoy #bedeeplyrooted #butfirstjesus #smallfarmliving #countryviews #myview #sunset

Last night the kids were asking when is the next camping trip. It’s coming up soon and they will ask me a few times a day, until that day, so we put it on the calendar together. I write the words and draw a little stick figure drawing of our van and camper and a fire. It’s not fancy. They love it. And now they refer to the calendar several times a day instead of asking me. Gwen even showed her stuffed animal she plans to bring with her. 😍 It’s the same reason they know how to read an analog clock. I got tired of being asked constantly when nap time is over if an older child won’t sleep. 😫 I’m mostly just trying to raise kids to learn how to find answers and not be annoying. 😂 And having fun while we do it. Even though things like baking together, which teaches reading, measurements, and patience (mostly for me!) are incredibly messy, it’s the best ways I know how to teach my kids the skills they need. So if a curriculum isn’t working for your family, don’t feel the need to follow it exactly. Take what you like or throw the whole thing out. Your kids are learning so much from you already! 🤗 #homeschooling #homeschoolfamily #kitchenschool #homeschoolmom #unschooling #homeeducation #simpleeveryday #raisethemup #homeschoolcurriculum
