Musings on Motherhood: Deliberate Parenting
http://norrismom.blogspot.com/2014/06/deliberate-parenting.html
Thoughts on motherhood, family life, parenthood, etc. Friday, June 20, 2014. School is out and now all 5 of my children are home all day long. What to do? As much as I love having free time for the kids to just play all day, I also know they need a little structure to go along with that. I've had to do that annual soul searching of "What do I want to accomplish this summer? Or "What is it I want to do with my kids each day or have them remember about this summer? What kind of person do I want them to be?

Musings on Motherhood: September 2013
http://norrismom.blogspot.com/2013_09_01_archive.html
Thoughts on motherhood, family life, parenthood, etc. Friday, September 27, 2013. I just read this article. Friday, September 13, 2013. I find myself constantly counting kids these days. And it's not just to make sure all of them are there. Really, it's more to make sure the correct number of kids are there at the right time. Going to church: 5 kids all here? Picking up from kindergarten: 5 kids - 1 still in school 2 extra ones to take home = 4 kids. Taking to preschool: 5 kids - 2 at school = 3 kids.

Thoughts on motherhood, family life, parenthood, etc. Monday, November 4, 2013. When I grow up, I don't want to be a mom". Well, last night at dinner I finally discovered the source for the comment. I was asking my children what they wanted to do for a job when they grew up. These answers are constantly varying from Lego designer to rockstar dressmaker. Here was my 7 year old's response. 7 yr old: "I don't want to be a mom when I grow up.". I love being a mom. It's the best thing ever.".

( https:/ www.stephencovey.com/7habits/7habits.php. I know. I'm like 15 years behind the times here. I learned a lot of great stuff in studying this book, but one of the ones I really like using in parenting is the concept of emotional bank accounts. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Musings on Motherhood: Becoming a responsible adult
http://norrismom.blogspot.com/2013/12/becoming-responsible-adult.html
Thoughts on motherhood, family life, parenthood, etc. Thursday, December 5, 2013. Becoming a responsible adult. I had the same reaction when I bought my house. The numbers involved were much larger, but really I just signed some papers, they gave me a key, and it was mine. No worrying about a landlord or reporting back to anyone. The bank really seemed to think I was a responsible adult and that I was old enough to take care of a house by myself. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Orem, UT, United States.
