Just like adults, kids have their own love language. It’s important to connect with them on that level where they will feel loved the most. I would say that my children’s love language is QUALITY TIME. Some more than others, but overall quality time is one of their love languages. This might stem from them being twins and literally never having time to themselves.
first week of homeschool
Due to COVID, I decided to homeschool Harper and Mason. They were suppose to be going into their first year of preschool. I’m honestly so sad they don’t get to experience it like they should. I just couldn’t imagine them having to wear masks all day long at four years old. My older daughters are in middle school and I felt they could handle it, so they went back to in-person.
back to school favorites 2020
During this pandemic, being a parent with school aged children is hard. Nothing seems like the right choice. Our kids are going into exciting years. McKenzie and Kasey are entering middle school – a new building, different type of schedule, new independence and responsibility. Harper and Mason are entering preschool – STARTING SCHOOL FOR THE FIRST TIME!! These are such big years for our kids and my heart is breaking that its not going to be the experience they deserve. My heart hurts for ALL kids.
harper and mason are four | four year old photoshoot
Every year I’ve been trying to remember to take my own photos for the kids around their birthdays. This way I save money on a photographer! For their four year old photos, we walked around our little town and snapped some shots. I thought they turned out super cute!
dino-four fourth birthday party
We are at the fourth year!! I’ve been thinking about a “Dino-four” birthday since they were about two. I saw it on Pinterest and loved how catchy and gender neutral it was. So, it has stuck with me all these years. Harper and Mason are getting SO big! Harper is growing a lot faster than Mason but I think that’s pretty normal for boy/girl growth. They are starting to talk more “kidish” and not so “toddlerish”, if that makes sense. Speaking full sentences that actually make since, using bigger words, etc. It makes me sad because the toddler voices and words are my absolute favorite part of toddlerhood. Like why can’t Mason say “toodles” instead of tools forever?! Or Harper say, “can me go there?”. Ugh. Please stop growing kids.
