"Is That a Ford Mustang?" and Other Cute Car Quips

My husband loves cars.  He plays a lot of racing video games right now, and so Little Guy is learning to like cars too.  He has been able to recognize Volkswagen Beetles for a long time, and will often see the "slug bugs" before I do.  But recently he is making an effort to learn new cars, so often when we take walks, he asks me "Is that a Ford Mustang?", or something along those lines.

He is getting better at recognizing them, and always gets excited when he is right, and says "Just like mine!" (he has a couple of Ford Mustang Hot Wheels Cars).

Michael likes Nissan Skylines, and was driving them a lot in The Crew, so Little Guy is certain they are the best cars.  The other day we were in the car and he said "I'm going to have a Nissan Skyline." (side note for those that don't know, they don't sell Skylines in the USA, so that will be quite a feat)  I said "Daddy wants a Skyline too."  His reply was "I race him in my Nissan Skyline!"

I hate motorcycles.  Two of my cousins, and one of my friends, have been in insanely horrifying motorcycle accidents.  So I am quite eager to teach my son he shouldn't EVER ride a motorcycle.  Whenever we see one, he points it out, and then says "I don't like motorcycles."  I then ask him why, and he says "They are dangerous!"

Breastfeeding An Adopted Child - The Tenth Day of Christmas

Today we are hearing from Teglene.  Her story is pretty long, but trust me, it is totally worth reading through!  She also has a great blog, called The Breastfeeding Mother . I always knew I wanted to breastfeed my children. I couldn ’t imagine doing it any differently. I was lucky enough to give birth to two beautiful boys and I enjoyed breastfeeding them both. Not that it was easy or without struggle, but it was what I wanted to do and loved doing it. In fact, I liked it so much, and felt so passionate about breastfeeding that I became a La Leche League Leader, so that I could help other breastfeeding moms. I really took to the idea of “Mothering through breastfeeding”. It wasn ’t just a feeding method for me, but a relationship with my child. My husband and I always talked about adopting a child who needed a family. We thought, if we can’t have kids of our own then we will adopt. Even if we can have kids of our own, maybe we will still adopt. After the birt...

Why I Choose Christian Light Education Homeschool Curriculum

Last summer I decided that I was going to homeschool our foster daughters while they were on summer vacation.  There were two reasons for this: 1) Two of the three girls were behind academically.  I really hoped that by working through the summer we could help them get on track for the next school year.  They left our house soon after school started, so I don't know how well it worked. 2) I don't allow my children much in the way of screen time, and these girls were accustomed to having TV and tablets in their rooms all the time.  So they never really knew what to do with themselves.  I figured school work for the morning would help with that dilemma. Choosing a curriculum was difficult for me.  I know that some people bounce around and change curriculum a lot, but whatever I got, I hoped I would like enough to use the non-consumables with Little Guy.  I don't like wasting money, and I hate the idea of some topics falling through the cracks bec...
