Every day is vacation when you unschool
This was a funny one. Since we are unschoolers, and I've often mentioned that every day is like a Sunday or vacation day, this is our every day! Haha. Also no Santa. And no early bedtime, since I've somehow lost the grip on bedtime and it's around 10:30pm these days.
We actually don't have a tremendous amount of fighting these days (As long as I don't try to leave the house with them. Still building up to that trip to the Museum of Natural History with K and the boys that I think we might be ready for this year). I was trying to decide if it was because we homeschool and we have lots of time together and the days are relaxed and peaceful, or because we are just lucky based on the different developmental levels that they haven't been fighting so much. I think b.
For example, 6yo just shrieked that 10yo should stop singing. And 10yo did. And there was no physical eruption of violence. Weird, right?
I note that there is no dinner on this list. Just like my house! I have actually been thinking that I have to set up some type of dinner plan. What I used to do with the girls was have them tell me 5 meals they were willing to eat for dinner and then I would either have them available or actually make them. Jack is getting hungry every night (I know, shocker--but since my other kids eat like birds or live on lebens or make their own food this is an adjustment) and asking for 2nd and 3rd dinners. I'm wondering if it's time to move out of wacky macs and pizza bagels and over to real people food.
