Development

This past week we took a break from formal lessons and we spent almost every day out of the house. It rained almost everyday too. If it wasn't raining it was too wet to play outside so we did a lot of errand running. We had a lot of fun though.

This week we will be going back to our normal schedule but, there is that bittersweet feeling. I love doing lessons with the girls and watching them grow and I also love having fun with the girls and introducing them to different things out of the house. We can't have all of one thing though. I would either never get anything accomplished or my kids would look like little vampires and I would be cranky with cabin fever from never going out. Balance is important, for everyone.

On another note, it is interesting to see how my audience for this blog is developing. What I thought would be a mostly montessori community viewed blog has become a more Facebook community and family viewed blog. While I'm sure it will continue to grow and the audience will branch out to people who don't know me personally, it makes me wonder if I should change my tone just a little from Montessori information to "look what my kids are doing now." But I personally find that a little boring so I'll just do a mix. Some days you might find a post describing a specific montessori activity or lesson and other days you might find a brag post about how awesome my girls are. I guess you'll just have to tune in several times a week to find the posts that tickle your fancy. :)
