New Post

So I restarted and restarted this blog and then stopped, Getting caught up in the whirlwind of the L.A life and trying to find a right way to start a blog. I feel so inspired by so many blogs but then comparison gets the best of me because, So I get discouraged and stop. As a new Blogger it's overwhelming and things seem so complicated to start, a fancy camera, a mac computer, a unique style, a family with cute style and so on..I have none to say the least. The one thing I have though is passion to create a extraordinary life with just the simple things all around me and with that I will let it take off! Making it as simple and beautiful as possible so people can relate and say " I can do this" SO  with that I will slowly blend this intro post with another post to avoid the awkward first post. Enjoy! So As a stay home mom you always wonder "can I be doing more for my child?" and you can not help to compare to those little ones around you. But honestly with me, I always just wondered (what if..) and just went through my daily life with no routine or schedule and not changing anything. Well as you can imagine it started getting hectic with no order and Tv became a main part of our day and the kids were just not learning at all. So I decided it was time for a routine and I did research. The place I found best was.. you guessed it, Pinterest! So after many hours researching I came up with a schedule (which I haven't touched hahaha) but one pin after another..and it Hit Me! Tot School! I have read so many blogs about homeschooling and how the younger kids have Tot school. I thought what fun! I can really enjoy there childhood while teaching them, Experimenting, creating.  So I realized the reason the Schedule didn't work out for me and it sat there for months without being touched, was because it was just same boring routine.I felt like it was just to get by to the the next day there was no enjoyment for me at all or adventures. Life without art, experimenting, learning, joy can get easily distracted by Tv, Facebook, Pinterest, and cellphones and we are back to no routine and no learning. But I decided Tot school/ homeschooling would be such a wonderful to grow and have such great learning adventures with your kids. So I have decided to give it a try with my 18 month old and 3 year old and for the last couple days it has been so much fun! But there are so many different activities, methods, and curriculum's its very overwhelming. SO this is where the adventure begins! The reason I choose to blog it down is to be able to network with other parents, share my ideas, get feedback,  share memories, and have a place to for my adventures. So with that said I will start this teaching adventure from scratch! I have nothing except a mess in my house and lots of toys. School is in session :)
