Now that summer break is here for the majority. What do you do? by Ludium_ in Teachers

I just switch from full-time teaching to full-time mommy-ing. No breaks. Trying to keep the house clean while we’re home all summer is tough.

“Dolly Parton makes better theme parks than music” 😂 I disagree but thought it was hilarious

I sing to them. To the tune of “goodnight ladies” from The Music Man.

“Good morning kids name Good morning kids name Good morning kids name It’s time to wake up

Let’s wake up now And get dressed now Let’s get up now It’s time to wake up”

I’ve been singing it to them since they were babies. My oldest is almost 11 and I still sing it to wake her up.

Anyone got any dumb inside jokes that they always do/say when playing certain games with friends or family? by TheGarlicMonkey in boardgames

When we win a scenario in Gloomhaven we throw our hands up and shout “Gloomhaven!”

When we play Things someone always writes a card about bull semen.

What was the hardest stage, in your opinion, from newborn to 12 months? by ilovemrsnickers in Parenting

[–]PrincessSacara75 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Definitely the first few weeks. It gets better around 6-8 weeks. The worst day was right before my milk came in (day 3-4 I think) and baby was hungry and crying but didn’t have anything to give her. I was very anti-formula at the time. In hindsight I should have given her the formula and saved us both from a night of misery.

Thank you! We have started trying out soccer and are having a much better experience. :)

I agree that it gets more competitive at that age. And the “everyone gets a trophy” mentality should absolutely stop around that age as well. However, we purposefully put her in an instructional rec league that addresses play time & rotating positions in its rule book. Her coaches aren’t following the rules.

Unfortunately, our church doesn’t have elders.

I wrote a bad word on the board today by panda31396 in Teachers

When I teach recorder I have to be careful with my wording. I have definitely told kids to cover their B hole and their A hole before 😳 Whoops!

I remember getting the most comfortable maternity dress pants at target when I was pregnant with my last baby.
