My Domestic Cardboard Palace: Awesome Day!

Yesterday I mention that we are going tv free on school nights. Today was our first day trying it out and I think that it went GREAT! Monkey’s teacher { have I mentioned that she is awesome!} even emailed me this morning telling me of a wonderful change that has seemed to take place in my little monkey!

Monkey came home and said she had a great day! The best part, she said when she thought she was having a difficult time she prayed. My heart melted! So I wasted no time at spending some quality time with my girl. We came home cleaned off the table together, she talked and I listened. I also found out more about her day then I think I have ever known in a whole year! I felt like we were truly communicating and I could physically feel my soul jump for joy!

After the table was cleaned off we worked on homework. As I may have mention Monkey has an amazing teacher who comes up with fun things to do for example Monkey put on a light show for me while practicing her spelling words. Monkey also had to disguise a turkey so it wouldn’t fall victim to a traditional Thanksgiving dinner. Monkey made hers look like a turkey. {I think it came out so adorable!}

Monkey also had to write about who she thought was going to be president and what she would do if she was president. Monkey wrote the cutest thing that stated “ I think Romney is going to win because he is nice. If I was president I would be the first girl President and there wouldn’t be any school.”
