I’ve learned one major thing about picking my kids up after school.
I cannot – by any means – ask them in any sort of cheery voice, “How was your day?”
My nine-year-old daughter recently told me that for some reason that question produces this fiery rage inside of her. She can’t explain it, but it makes her so mad.
I asked my husband about it that night and he said that the question has too many expectations attached to it. If someone really wants to know about your day, they will ask you directly with no fake cheer.
The cheer places too much of a burden on having a happy answer in response and that’s all fake.
OK, I get it.
But then, I realize that the response to anything I ask my kids to do after-school is met with groans and whines.
Why? Are your kids like this too?
I adore my small wardrobe. I have less stress, more outfits that work and less clutter in my closet. My seven-year-old daughter however needs help. At times, it seems like a small bomb exploded in her room, strewing clothing everywhere. Here’s how I helped my tween pare down her wardrobe and how she found pieces for her new clothing collection.
Does it seem like your child has a lot more homework than you did at her age?
The vocabulary, the spelling, the math homework sheet and then the required 20 minutes of reading… all in first grade??
How can you possibly keep your child focused during it all?
When you need new furniture, do you panic? You want a great deal but you also want a piece that’s high quality. Where do you usually go? Let me tell you… I’ve discovered a hidden find for affordable furniture that’s also high-quality.
Don’t look. Ok, take a peek. See that pile of paper on your kitchen counter? In it, you’ll find your kid’s papers from school, past due bills, maybe even a check or two. Looking at that counter brings up all those feelings of overwhelm you so try to avoid. Why? You try so hard to keep it organized, but without fail it always manages to look like that. Here’s how to keep kitchen counters clear without using a blowtorch.
Scared to head out on the open road with kids? Don’t be! These family road trip hacks are a piece of cake and will make your drive so much easier – wherever you are going.
It’s 6pm on a Thursday and I get a frantic text from a friend. Her daughter goes to the same school as mine.
“Hey, does your daughter have the math test from 2 months ago? The teacher is letting Celina retake it but she can’t find it.”
“Yeah, hold on, let me ask her.”
My daughter does have the test – which she doesn’t hand over right away because she wants to know exactly why she needs it, what it will be used for… third degree basically.
Satisfied with all my answers,she opens her binder to the math section, pulls out the test and hands it to me.
“Thanks,” my friend texts back, “I don’t know what Celina did with it.”
In the midst of this strange season of social distancing and change, money may well be a scary topic for you. Maybe you’re like my family and you’re working through a big loss of income due to the pandemic? Maybe overwhelm and anxiety define your money situation in this season of uncertainty? Maybe you’ve decided to keep your head down and eyes closed, playing the “if I don’t look at it, then it can’t be real game” that our kids played when they were little?
