Katelyn and I have started reading the Little House on the Prairie books and are loving them. Katelyn reads them a lot faster than I do. From start to finish she is done in 2-3 days, it takes me about 2-3 weeks.
Some of the reasons I love them so much:
Children obey their parents like their lives depend on it.
Mary and Laura can play for hours and hours without any toys. (Unless you are lucky enough to get the bladder of a pig, blow it up, and play with it like a balloon. )
The children were so happy to get a candy cane and penny for Christmas.
All of their belongings can fit into ONE wagon.
This is their schedule:
Wash on Monday
Iron on Tuesday
Mend on Wednesday
Churn on Thursday
Clean on Friday
Bake on Saturday
Rest on Sunday
I think we just might try it :)
Thanks Kim for the inspiration

You are a great mom!! I loved looking through your blog and reading about the WAY too familiar family scenes and troubles. You sure handle it all very well and do not look like you have 4 kids. Does that just blow you away sometimes? Remember the great basketball-watching nights and games at the Schroders? Fun times, but I'm not sure they really were better than the days now....right? BYE!!!
