Today Bonnie had the brilliant idea that I make the snack so she didn’t have to stress about doing both that and the lesson plan. This was a game changer and the morning went off without a hitch. I still had some time to work and lately have been relying heavily on my paralegal and new courier who is amazing. By amazing I mean he answers text messages and does not lose original documents. 😀
After lunch, the kids read the books I brought them from the last time I flew to the states. The kids are interested in Gravity Falls and we have the books in Spanish and English. They read both.
My second child above, eating a strawberry and chocolate ice cream, reading his favorite book. Living his best life. In the back ground is the children’s reminder of all the chores they have to do in a day. On Friday we add up the chores performed and who ever does 75% of the chores, had a vote as to what we eat and what movie we watch that evening.
the kids ended up bored, so they created a play and demanded that I not video tape it. It was cute and typical of what boys would come up with. All three boys transformed into robots to save their damsel in distress sister from some evil. I kept telling them that this isn’t far off from reality and that I expect them to protect their sister later on in life, even though she may not need it.
We ended up eating salmon and pesto pasta with asparagus. The kids used to love this meal and they barely touched it. It was a very good and productive day.
