This morning was great. We started with everyone helping get all the chores done in less than an hour!!! Hooray!!! The kids really like being given 3x5 cards with an assignment on it and turning it in when the assignment is complete. They told me this afternoon that they really don't like having a list of things to complete. There isn't much difference in what they do, but I guess this process is a lot more fun. The other bonus is that we start with a purple card that gathers us together for a family prayer before we start. Maybe there's just something about starting with the spirit?
Since we were all done by 10:30, we did almost nothing else the whole day (aside from cleaning up after anything Moroni or Ruth got into). The kids really enjoyed it and so did I. I'm now close to completing my current cross-stitch project.
Right now they are outside enjoying the late Summer days. It's a good thing cause while the sun is high, it's just too hot and humid to enjoy the outdoors.
The kids also let me know that they really liked scripture study last night. Rebekah and Rachel had a friend over and so did Joseph. They really enjoyed having scripture time with their friends because there were a lot of people (only two more). Rebekah and Rachel also liked being turned around and reading at the piano like a desk. If that's all it takes...
