Another school week begins...
We begin our morning at 7:00am. Time to rise and shine! After dressing, it's time for our Pet Duties. While the kids are taking care of their pets, Mom is taking care of the laundry. We meet for breakfast and a quick run-down of today's plans. Sara, 20, has college classes in the mornings and works in the afternoons. Lily, 17, will be working on a new schedule for upcoming weeks. She's about to start her first job. Kalan, 15, will be meeting Dad for lunch. Kalan has a soccer game this evening and Dad will be taking him. Kyle, 12, has a normal day of school and chores. Jeremiah, 10, will have a normal school day with soccer practice later this evening. Jessea, 7, also has a normal school day.
School begins at 9:00am. We break for lunch at 12:00, and return to school at 1:00. We'll school until 3:00 and begin our Specials (special chores). At 4:00, we'll break for a snack and to rest. At 5:00, it's time for Afternoon Chores. Mom and Miah (Jeremiah) leave for soccer practice at 5:30. Mom walks during his practice. At 7:00, we head for home. At 7:30, Mom prepares supper. Dad and Kalan will be in shortly.
As with any large family household, we use our schedules as a guideline. We do good to actually stay on it... We have struggles and emergencies like everyone else. But, we work together. Our home is never quiet. I'm not sure what I'll ever do when it does empty out. We love friends and family coming out to visit. Autumn is my favorite time of year, and I love to garden and decorate our home with fresh new colors. And, as always, it's time to give the computer chair some space... Until another time,
