I find that homeschooling gets me up and moving. It could simply be that I’m waking up a couple hours earlier than I have been lately. It could also be that I’m engaging with my kids in a more positive, constructive manner. I feel happier and more productive than I have in a while. I’m getting things done — not just homeschooling, but other things around the house, like cooking, cleaning, and crafting.
The laundry is getting done a little faster. I’m cooking better dinners. I’m picking up the discarded flotsam of our day-to-day activities a little more consistently. I’m working on my craft projects, if only for short periods of time (motivated mama or not, my kids are still 8, 3, and 4 1/2 months).
I had no idea that doing more would make me want to do more!
