In the craft basket: Im working on sewing a new laptop case and a bag to house all of it cords!
Looking forward to this week: Weasels last day of school is Wednesday
Tips and Tricks: Find the right chore chart, we’ve tried 3 or 4 before we found the one that worked best for our kids We used List PlANIT’s Family Planner and in it there are chore charts geared towds specific age groups. We alternate jobs between kids, color in respective days Laminate and they check off with a dry erase marker. for a completed chore chart they earn 50 cents but then AFTER the chores on the given day are completed, they can complete other chores at 25 or 50 cents a piece
My favorite blog post this week: Blog Hopping (a new discovered blog you would like to share with the readers): I have been working on Crystal Stine’s new eBook Course called Creative Basics and have recently fallen n Love with Canva via her Challenges…..Check them out at www.canva.com and yu can get the details of Crystal’s book here

Lesson learned the past few days: nothing really
On my mind: The Book Anything by Jennie Allen. It’s powerful
