Day 22/365
My husband has been working late nights this week, and as any mom can testify evenings tend to get a little crazy.
There is something about that time right before dinner that is prime for fighting, whining, temper tantrums, etc.
So today, when I noticed my kids were turning from their sweet angelic selves into...well you know...I busted out their new chore charts.
I was trying to save money when I made these but probably spent double what I could have if I had just bought them off of etsy. Oh well. Lesson learned.
These are not just any chore charts, these are chore charts you can draw on with markers!
It bought me one hour of happy, non fighting, non whining, children. Anytime I tried to walk away to get things done they would say "Mom, come watch us draw." I know it's what we all want to do with our quiet time, watch a four year old and a two year old draw.
I love moments like these.
