I am in mom mode. My youngest has started a new school this year for 4th grade. I pulled him out of school after a rough experience in 2nd grade. In case you haven’t noticed, I am fairly hardcore. I am very impatient and am afraid of waiting. When it comes to my boys, I put myself right out there and get the job done. So, I withdrew him from school at the end of his 2nd grade year and enrolled him into an online school aka home school. I was extremely scared of what could happen with this but at the same very excited at what I wanted the results to be. The rocky experience in 2nd grade was not entirely the school’s fault, but they didn’t help much.
I am ecstatic report, my year of homeschooling was one of the greatest things I could have done for my youngest son. It wasn’t fun..it wasn’t easy. But the results are shining now. His new school is providing us with a much better learning experience. He definitely has aways to go, but there are no regrets for putting my business on hold and any other sacrifices that were made. The ease of this school year thus far is just amazing! Let’s not jinx this.
Planning a home party or other quaint gathering? I saw this ‘trick’ a long, long time ago and since I used it recently at a bridal shower I planned, I thought I would pass it on. When purchasing your designed themed paper products such as napkins and paper plates purchase a pack of the designed set along with packages of non-designed ones but still match in color. It takes a bit of time but alternate each designed napkin with the plain colored napkin. For example, if you are using the super fun penis napkins for your ladies’ night out party, purchase a pack of plain yellow napkins to alternate.
