This sums up exactly "why" I want to quit teaching to homeschool my children. They only get 1 mother. A school can hire teachers year after year, but childhood is a once in a lifetime opportunity.

My 4 year old asked for water at bedtime. I asked her to use a complete sentence. Her response "May I have some water please?" I can't get 14-17yo to write a complete sentence, let alone write or spell their name legibly. Manners? Those are few and far in-between. My 4 year old is running circles around them.

I've had multiple teachers scoff at the fact the I'm retiring. Yes, I can retire at 31. @OceanSlim I'm endlessly thankful for you.

@OceanSlim buys plants so I can enjoy them longer. 🩷🌼 Thanks for making me a Mama!

Someone remind me in 1 year that @OceanSlim said we could raise chickens next spring. 🐣🩷

I don't understand recording your daily life with your kids, over consumption, in debt, etc. If I hear "must have" or "I'm obsessed with this product" again I might puke. Add "let's restock my brand new car" Homegirl have you heard of a depreciating asset? We have 5 vehicles and they are all paid off. This is how I can retire at 31... Work smarter not harder. No one cares about brands/how new something is. Thank God for @OceanSlim. ❤️

The best mic drop of my life: "I'm going to be a stay at home mom and homeschool my babies" 😍

The toddlers approve. 😍

All done 🌼

Another weekend project. Started this door sign with my girlfriends Friday night. I just need to add some black details to the border & letters. I'm not super confident in my bow making skills so I may ask another friend for that. 😉❤️🤍💙 See the 2nd pic for inspo.

Grabbed this kids potting bench at Aldi. After 2 hours, I'm done staining & sealing. Can't wait for my kids to make mud pies. ❤️

I certainly won't miss active shooter drills... I always carry when my babies are with me, but I can't on school property.

State farm: if you buy our life insurance policy we pay out faster than other policies Me: we aren't concerned about that. We won't be put out by a delayed payment State farm: well the bank can freeze your accounts Me: they can't touch this ... 🧡

I currently teach public school and will be a homeschool mom in approximately 25 days... My daughter (4yo) thinks she needs to ask permission to use the bathroom at HOME. I feel triggered.

My heart was so full today when my friends and family loaded up in my minivan with room to spare and we were able to go on an adventure together to the zoo and had a great time. ❤️

My pit bull is broken. However, he used to climb on the roof so this is an improvement.

I enjoy the option to be a woman with emotions that is a delicate flower that isn't meant for hard labor. 2nd wave + feminists are wild.

TIL that my facial cleanser has red 40 and my moisturizer has blue 1. I really don't care what color these items are if they're being washed down the drain?

I blamed my 4 year old for moving my Kindle when it was my cat the whole time.
