Well it took a lot of prayer and a lot of thinking, but I FINALLY got our schedule made, printed and in use around our house! We had prayed and made a schedule before Princess JoJo was born and we were using it, but when Our Marine was called to a deployment I had to sit down and pray over another schedule. One that has me as the soul carer of our little ones.
I really like MOTH, I love the concept, and I tired using the materials that come with the book. But due to our family changing more than the normal family I took all that I learned from MOTH and made my own schedule. We do several different things all week long so I pretty much have every day of the week on the schedule plus some. Plus some you say, there are only 7 days in a week how do you make more. Well, on the 2nd Tuesday of the month we have MOPS and on the 4th Tuesday of the month we have MOM and Fridays swap back and forth for Shopping and Apts/ Errands. Each person has their own schedule. I typed it up. I can still move things around like on a MOTH schedule, I just have to print out another paper, which for me is easier than having to try and rewrite on the little squares on the MOTH schedule, which would be great if we didn't seem to change from month to month.
I started our new schedule a little last week, but being that we were soooo busy it didn't get completely followed, but this week we have been doing alright! We will see how it keeps doing!?

catlinfamily asked what MOTH was. I usually link it, but had forgotten too, so now the first MOTH you see is linked to the site. You can also find it on the RIght Side Bar under "God Bless Our Home". |
