Stay-At-Home Mom Internship

So I've mentioned that I'm not working this year.
I have always wanted to be a stay-at-home mom. This is my dream come true*! This is only a temporary situation.

I do have goals that I am going to be working on.

  • Educating Ivy - So far, she is doing a great job. She has even asked to do schoolwork nearly every day. I hadn't planned on starting until next week but she has asked and she is receiving. 
  • Have fun - I've been looking into a variety of cheap or free "field trip" type activities. We've gone to a children's area of the Dallas Arboretum. We have gone letterboxing (which she want's to do again!). I have a lot of other plans!
  • Take care of the house - Clean, clean, clean! Errands, menu plan, save money, coupon.
I would love to say that everything is perfect. But it isn't. Ivy has put up a few fights and fits. I'm trying to keep my calm. It isn't easy all the time. Of course, most of the time, she is easygoing and very loving. Kisses, hugs, and "I love you"s all the time.

If you have any ideas for things to do, let me know!


*There's some sarcasm in that one.
