L. is in Kindergarten this year. He's not always happy about that fact.
September he would get the urge to leave in the middle of coloring and would quietly walk out.
October he mostly stayed in the class but set up shop in the Reading Tent and would not come out.
November and the teacher and I are both running motivational charts for him. Ways he can make his own choices in certain situations if he learns how to focus and work with people.
While getting out my stickers I realized that I need some short term goals laid out for me, so I feel motivated to learn new things and keep moving forward this chilly season.
So big stickers for me this winter if I:
*learn how to use a pressure cooker
*learn how to cook beans from scratch
*make soup once a week
*try the soup I make once a week (I hate soup)
I'm already started on the soups. I've made butternut squash soup (only I really seemed to like it), vegetable beef, and roasted tomato. I pair it with fresh bread or roasted potatoes. So far, so good.
Now I just need to lose the fear that the pressure cooker is going to explode.
