Washing Dishes as a Chore


Small for his age, 11 year old Cris is assigned to do dishes everyday, every meal. He procrastinate but does it very well. He has devised a system.


Potty Trained at 3


Our 3 year old is starting to be dry when he wakes up in the morning. He usually tells us when he needs to go potty. But, there are days that he just feels lazy to tell us. He is still afraid to go to the big potty chair though there are some days he insists on it.

We are not in a hurry. He is the baby in the family.

Great Study Room




Noah is very antsy. When we began homeschooling, it was difficult to find him his quiet space. He either distracts everyone or gets distracted easily.

The laundry room is a great place for him. It is a small room with no distractions unless I am in Mt. Washmore.

Piano Lessons and Homeschooling

I'm going to incorporate "piano lessons" in our curriculum soon. I need to spend 30 minutes each child every week.


Sunday Nap



We were watching a Lord of the Rings movie marathon last weekend. Guess who fell asleep?

My Girls and Taylor Swift



My girls are into Taylor Swift these days. Faith drew a picture of Taylor Swift last week.

I really do not know if Taylor Swift is a good girl to emulate. I still have to find out her bio.

Meanwhile, I am hoping she is a good girl.

Sunday Nap



We had a movie marathon this weekend. We watched "Lord of the Rings" to "Return of the King". We started at 5 pm and ended at 11:00 pm.

Chris is reading Tolkien books while Noah is reading C.S. Lewis books.
