My purpose for this blog is to utilize the Law of Attraction to acheive my desire to be a full-time stay-at-home mom. Not just a stay-at-home mom, but a supermom and a superwife. According to the Law of Attraction, the more you think about and act out what you want, it will happen in your life. My goal is to immerse myself in the things that I want for at least the next five years (until Jemma goes off to school) and not think about having to return to work. I want to make my maternity leave as long as possible and hope that somehow I can make my family my ONLY focus. At the very least, I will cherish every moment I have with my children for as long as I can.
DAY 1 of PROJECT SUPER MOMMY
Today is Jemma’s 2-week birthday!! I feel like time is just flying by.
I’m still working out the kinks of being a mother of four, but our morning routine is pretty well set (at least until Jemma becomes more alert and requires more one-on-one attention. We start off the morning with getting Jake up for school. He follows his schedule and is independent with getting ready in the mornings. I’m so glad he still enjoys going to school. Poor guy has had a rough year. Not in the sense that he is doing poorly in Kindergarten…just the opposite–my little genius is getting swept under the rug because the teachers don’t know how to challenge him. Even I don’t know how to challenge him…in fact, he is the one who challenges me with all the questions!
Jorja and Jagger worked on cutting skills today. My little guy got the spring-open scissors and enjoyed cutting straws. He giggled every time they flew into the air after each snip. Jorja is a little more advanced. She is doing such a great job with cutting out shapes, but she much preferred to snip the straws with Jagger…which led to a ton of straw bits on the floor!
Anyone who knows me, knows I hate to waste anything (even straw bits), so we made bracelets out of the bits and some pipe cleaner. It was a great activity to work on fine motor coordination, dexterity and visual motor skills. In addition, it was a great way to practice counting and identifying colors with Jagger and I used the activity to work on comparing measurements with Jorja (like which of these pieces is bigger).
This was such a great day. Hopefully, I will get a little more organized and be able to plan my activities for the whole week. So far, I’m thinking “FLARP” will be a great activity for tomorrow!
