Mission of the Month: April 2011 {and March Accomplishments}

Welcome to Mama’s Mission of the Month! My hope is that this will help me {and you} follow through on some of the goals that we have set for the month! So, if you are a mama and you want to join in, check out the intro post! (If you have already read the rules, you can easily grab the buttons from the Buttons Tab on the top of the sidebar.)

March Mission Update: My mission for this month was to FINALLY finish reading Small Changes for a Better Life and the Worn Out Woman: When Your Life is Full and Your Spirit is Empty. Plus, I wanted to get back on track with our homeschool since making a huge move to another state. Well, I am so excited to FINALLY be able to say that I accomplished my goals for this month! Yay!!!

I enjoyed both books and I am hoping to be able to post a review of them in the future...for now, it will suffice to say that I am L.O.V.E.D the Elizabeth George book. Give me step by step instructions and I am golden! More to come…

As for school, we are chugging along. It has been great to finally start to regain a sense of normalcy, though we are still having a few rough patches here and there.

My Mission for April 2011: I am feeling pretty good about my March accomplishments, so for April, I want to “set it up!” Here is what I hope to accomplish:

~ Finish organizing our classroom. Although “school is back in session,” I still need to put the finishing touches on our little classroom.

~ Post about our new Calendar Board. Before we moved I came up with a new twist on our old Calendar Board. I plan to share what we are doing along with the printables that I made to go along with it.

~ Finish our Chore/Job system. Our previous chore system isn’t working so well anymore, so I have been toying with a few new ideas. Plus, the kids want to start earning some money…hence my need for a Chore/Job system.

~ Use Flag Page with the kids. I have the opportunity to review Kids Flag Page and I can’t wait to find out a bit more about my kids and discover their hearts! I am really excited about this because we used the adult version of Flag Page a number of years ago after seeing Mark Gungor at a Laugh Your Way to a Better Marriage Conference. (FYI, I loved the conference…my stomach was aching from laughing so hard!!)

~ Read and implement A Day of Delight.  I won this book from the new Doorposts blog and I can’t wait to put an end to some of our Sunday craziness and transform it into a day of delight!

Well, that’s it…if it isn’t enough, right?!?!? I told you I am feeling good about my March accomplishments!
