Just Say These Words

A Good Night Sleep

Summer always messes up my kids’ sleeping schedule. The love to stay up late, and wake up late. I tend to let them because what are summer for. But now that school is only 6 weeks away, I have to wean them of this habit. I can’t have them sleeping late when they need to be up early.

So, starting this week, I wake them up around 7 to walk 2-4 miles around our neighborhood. I think it’s working pretty good so far. It just means that I jog my 6 miles at half past five in the morning, then when I’m done, I wake up my kids. Change my clothes and take them walking again. It’s not such a bad deal. Of course, when it’s too hot, I have to start out even earlier.

Only One At A Time

It seems like there’s rule. I can only get one child to face the camera at any single time.

So, I took another one….

and yet another one….

Oh, To Be A Kid Again!

He was hating his swimming lessons lately. I couldn’t even get him anywhere near the water. So, I thought a trip to the water park might make him remember why he loves water. He told me that he wants to learn how to swim and could he please go to his swimming class. Mission accomplished.
