This one has been trying to convince me that she doesn’t need to nap anymore... this photo taken at 5pm suggests that she does 👀 #bellehenfrey #wyliediaries

So... B is fast approaching three and so lots of people have been asking about school. Well, she actually started about six months ago… at home.

It is time for us to drop the ‘H’ bomb on y’all… yes, we are homeschooling.
I know that homeschool is super controversial and people have lots of opinions on it. I am not here to advocate that everyone should homeschool – I actually really don’t think they should.
However I wanted to share what we are doing for now and a bit about why. If this is even a little bit helpful to just one other family making the decision about preschool then it is probably worth talking about. Plus it might help some of our family and friends understand a little more about what we are doing and why 🤷🏼‍♀️ I have posted more about it on the blog (linked in bio)

Yes... I am the Mum who lets her kids eat chalk in the playground 🤷🏼‍♀️🎨 I am pretty sure that the green ones count as one of their 5 a day anyway so 👊🏻 #alfredjonathan #wyliediaries

I mean the girl took her sweet time to growing hair but wow 👀
Worth the very long wait 🙌🏻 #bellehenfrey

We now have our sweet happy baby back👏🏻 At 12 months we were going crazy with sleep deprivation. He was only sleeping in our bed or in the baby carrier. He was waking every 2 hours, nursing all through the night and not eating any food as a result of the all night long milk buffet. The whole family was an overtired, cranky hot mess 👀

Our amazing friends from church saw how we were falling apart a little and they not only offered sympathy and advice but surprised us by cooking food for our whole week and dropping it off at our place 😍 That is love in action right there.
Jono then took a few sleepless nights for the team and sleep trained the boy. First night weaning, then crib training.
One week on he is now happily sharing a room with his sister, sleeping in his crib, sleeping through the night and finally eating food 🙌🏻⭐️ And to celebrate this milestone he has just popped his first tooth 👊🏻 These babies have a pretty incredible Dad and I’m so blessed to be raising kids with him 💪🏻 I like to think that we have got this and that we can do it all but it really really does take a village. I have learnt this last week that it is ok to ask for/accept help.
I don’t believe that we are meant to live as a little exclusive Wylie unit of four, but that we are made to do life in community with others. Where other people can love our children, help raise them and where we can spot need and serve others.
A big thank you for our village 💪🏻 #alfredjonathan #sleeptrainingsuccess #wyliediaries

🏃🏻‍♂️👏🏻 Good job Dada! #wyliediaries #belleandfreddie
