Hi mamas! Thank you for watching today’s video! ❤ First, I am sorry if you get motion sickness…I am not used to filming with a vlog camera.😂 Second, yes the blurry splotch is a baby fingerprint. 😂 Have a wonderful weekend! ❤

We have a lot of busy happenings too. We just started back to school this week and I am watching this seeing all kinds of things that we go through too. It really is all the things at any given moment. We have such special and unique children, we are unique in our own needs as mamas, and then coming together with one another it is a journey. I find that there are times that I have to give myself a positive talk, reminder of be courageous, choosing to be real with myself. I have to choose sometimes to slow down even more. I have my oldest just starting high school this year and my youngest just turned three- it has really made me feel a bit overwhelmed. I have to find ways to be there for the children that are in between those ages too. But homeschooling is all we know and I feel so lucky to be home with my children. This video was so helpful to me, to know that I am not alone. Thanks

Thank you for sharing this as well. The slowing down is something that I am currently struggling with too.

Oh, good to see I’m not alone in my crazy mornings! 😂 I loved what you said about thinking about how you sound. Definitely something I’m working on, asking for Jesus’ help every hour in those mornings. Really appreciated this video!

Are you always this patient? 😩 there’s so much chaos with my boys (6 & 5) and daughter who is 2. In 35 weeks pregnant so it’s tiring and hard. So I get easily flustered and frustrated. You’re so peaceful and I would love to know if you have your angry mom moments too? Been trying to ask the Lord for more patience. It’s a beautiful chaotic time of life, and I know it’s so short and will go by so quickly.

I’m in this season too mama and my patience and reactions can be short and flustered! She is very patient and kind, something we can do as well. Pray on it 💕 but just letting you know you aren’t alone.

I 100% do have those moments. When the two oldest are having a hard time focusing, and my toddler wants to get into all the things, and my baby is crying because she needs a nap I can easily get over stimulated and go to a place of overwhelm. It's all a beautiful season, but it can be beautiful and hard at the same time. I will be honest and say it takes me a lot of work to not let my moments overflow onto the kids. Most of the time, it it nothing that THEY do that puts me in overwhelm, but how I respond to it, and how I view it. Do I view the toddler and baby as a distraction? Am I getting frustrated at my little ones not focusing because I am in a hurry, or do they just need a break? Simple thought changes really help me focus on the actual priorities and not on the things that aren't getting done. I hope that made sense. I homeschooled in late pregnancy last year too, and it adds another level of tired and hard. You are doing an amazing job! :) Congratulations on such a beautiful blessing!

Oh i just loved this video so much. I appreciate you showing a realstic day, especially with your toddlers playthings and needing mama so often. I loved that you said you may do a live someday when you are brave enough, lol! Girl i would never be brave enough to do that myself haha. Though for myself personally turning the camera on can show me things about myself i dont realize. I once took a video of me and my littles washing the dishes and as i watched it i realized i dont smile as often as i should. My littles are 6 and 2 so im only homeschooling the one right now, and seeing your efforts and care with homeschooling multiple kiddos at once, im just really proud of you. Its amazing to watch, i love your channel! Have a good day❤

You are so kind, thank you for your words of encouragement. And yes...the chances of me actually doing a live is pretty small. lol

Are you still doing 2 math and alternating with 2 LA on other days. It sounded like you mentioned doing math after lunch? I was going to try this schedule aswell but don't know yet if double lessons within the same subject won't be too much of that one thing. Would like an update later on how that routine is or isn't working!? Thanks.

@oursweetiebirdshome 10 ай бұрын

Yes and no. Lol I’ll be touching that with Monday’s video. We have only stuck with the full schedule for a solid week, and we loved it when we did. One thing we have been doing is just rotating subjects. So math first, LA, and then back to math after lunch. It breaks it up while also getting the lessons done. ❤️
