I have been reading other peoples blogs, and i really enjoy it, I keep up with about 5 of them now,

I haven't advertised mine at all to anyone, but maybe someone will happen upon it :)

I love my life, It is full and busy and exhausting, raising 5 children to be productive adults is a daunting task. sometimes I am really lazy and pretend I don't see the kid that just swiped a piece of candy thinking I didn't see, or pretend I didn't just see them repeat the behavior I had told them not too....As that means I have to be consistant and go through with the discipline. and that is tiresome someday s :)

Thankfully I am only sometimes lazy and for the most part I am onto these little people and their antics and I follow through and consequences are dealt out.

We are all growing and learning.

Honestly if you start this consistent discipline out early (which we did) It will really be few and far between that you will have to discipline.
instruct always, but discipline not as much.

It is a rainy dreary day here today and I don't have a lot of motivation to get anything done, and believe me there is so much to do! I feel kinda blah, the looming winter sort of depresses me, I know we've still fall to go and Christmas but after that it is just cold and more cold and that I do not look forward to, and today's weather is reminding me that it is on its way :(

enough of the feeling sorry for myself, let's post some pictures.
