  • Hello, friends! Welcome back to my channel One Blessed Mess for our first day of the 2022-2023 homeschool year day in the life!
    If you are new here, hi and welcome! I'm Christie, and I'm a 4th year homeschooling mom to 5 kids (ages 11, 10, 8, 3, and 1!) My husband and I pulled our kids out of public school, moved to our house in the country, and haven't looked back! I love sharing my (authentic + honest) journey with you all, and hope you will join me as we navigate our footing in the world of homeschooling!

    Haven't started this video yet, but I just want to say I got emotional seeing your beautiful family in the thumbnail. You are such a hardworking mama, homeschooling all of your kiddos! I give you so much respect for that and I love that you're raising the future at home. I only have three kids and it can be hard sometimes to homeschool with just three, but then I reflect on you and how many you're raising with your bare hands! It gives me hope to keep going (: So much respect to you!

      Hello 👋🏼 just curious on what your pediatricians said about it. My toddler has a swollen one too. I’ve already mentioned it to the pediatrician but she said it looked good and she wasn’t concerned about it. I mentioned it to two pediatricians actually and they both said the same.

    • @Kra-ri6fd
      @Kra-ri6fd Год назад +1

      @@CHAVEOCHOA They did blood work and an ultrasound on it and said they believe it's just basically calcified..that might not be the word for it but it's perpetually swollen and not getting any bigger. When he was sick (likely when he had Covid) it swelled and being he has OCD he kept poking at it over his worries, this likely formed some type of scaring and it has never gone down. It's never gotten bigger either. The doc believes this is likely what happened. He doesn't have lumps anywhere else. My son now remembers not to poke at stuff so that it can heal properly. Lymphnodes naturally swell to fight off sickness and usually go down with time. If your doc's not concerned and it's not getting any bigger....I wouldn't be concerned. Easier said then done, I know. Deep breath, I'm sure it's fine 🙂

    Hey 💛 Thank you for sharing. Can I ask… how do you get your kids to go to the table? It’s impossible to get my middle child to stop playing Lego in the mornings and even if we all get to the table, someone needs the toilet or something else and the moment passes us by…. How did your children become trained in this?

      I set clear expectations in our homeschool. They can either obey or have privileges taken away. We aren't super strict, but it is so important that they know their boundaries and that when it's time to start school, we start school. Their education is so important and I make sure they know that I mean business! 🥰
