Is it time yet?

Warning: Absolutely no spiritual content ahead!

But you know what? Us moms of preschoolers need advice for day to day things just as much as spiritual advice sometimes.

We're leaving for Florida the end of this week. I got so tired of hearing "Is it time to go to Florida now? When are we going to Florida? Is it time now? Is it next week yet? Can we go to Florida today?". Preschoolers have no concept of time. Last night, last week, last year...all the same to a four year old.

To save my sanity, we made a paper chain. We tear off one link everyday and when there are no more links....get in the van!

I'm sure it would work great for birthday countdowns, Christmas, visits to grandparents, etc.

  • Our Inspiration
      Love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength. These commandments that I give you today are to be upon your hearts. Impress them on your children. Talk about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up. Tie them as symbols on your hands and bind them on your foreheads. Write them on the doorframes of your houses and on your gates. Deuteronomy 6:5-9
