[AD] Enough is enough! The moment I realized our family calendar system had become “whatever random piece of paper survived the week” 😅 Now the plan lives somewhere everyone can see it, add to it, and actually use it. We’ve had the @Skylight Frame Calendar for a few months now and it has genuinely made everything so much easier. The kids can actually participate in the responsibility of the household, which I love! #myskylight #SkylightPartner

Me learning to swim: “What? Like it’s hard?” Turns out that my body composition is just its own flotation device. 🍑 I legitimately thought that everybody else could just… float like me. Last summer, I was on the lake for boat day with friends, and I was just bobbing in the water like a buoy, and my friend’s husband said, “What are you sitting on?” I said, “What do you mean?” He said, “Do you have one of those flotation diaper things? Because you’re not holding anything, but you’re not treading water.” I said, “I’m not sitting on anything. This is just me.” He said, “But you’re not moving your arms or your legs to tread water.” I said, “I know. I don’t have to tread water. I just float. I don’t know what to tell you.” Two bonuses of this body of mine, I’m harder to kidnap, and I could Bob my way all the way to coastal Ireland. #kelsewhatelse #midwesternmom

I don’t care if it was daylight when you parked your car. If it’s gonna be dark when you leave, your car better be under a street light! And not just any street light, a street light that’s relatively close to other people, building entrances, and cameras. Girl Training my husband part 3 Every time we drive past a man running at night I point him out and say “oh look! I can’t do that!” I feel it is my duty to make Sam also have to learn the rules of being a girl training that we had to learn. Just to idk… go outside and live.

You have to EARN the relaxation in that hotel. First thing you do is check the room for unusual suspects. Under the bed , Closets, bathrooms, recording devices. Check them all before barricading yourself in like it’s the purge out there. Have I ever actually had somebody hiding in my hotel room? No. But growing up it was absolutely impressed upon me by word-of-mouth and movies and TV shows that you must check or face eminent danger.

Not all heroes wear capes. Some of them just drip dry their hands because they know a 2-year-old just walked into the public restroom and that the sound of the automatic hand dryer is a one-way ticket to meltdown City. And the meltdown makes so much sense after a study on how the loud decibels of hand dryers and bathrooms are beyond a comfortable range for toddlers. In fact, they're so loud, that they cause pain to young children and with long-term exposure, are loud enough to cause hearing loss 😱. That compounded with the fact that hand dryers are known bacteria spreaders and toddlers are perfectly positioned for that poop and disease bacteria to go straight into their eyes, nose and mouth, I stay away from them myself. I don't expect people to change their behavior for me, and never once have I thought "wow I can't believe they are drying their hands!" People have every right to have dry hands! I'm sure I didn't notice until I had a kid myself, but now I make it a point to check for little kids before I activate any hand dryers 🕵️‍♀️ If you are a person who also does this, you don't have to, but you do it anyway to be kind.

I just pushed the confusion down and forgot about it for over a decade until I was having a conversation in my early 30s. I told someone I was from Branson and they said, " we didn't do typical Branson things but we would drive hours just to go to that outlet mall!" Me: WHY? WHAT IS SO SPECIAL ABOUT THE OUTLET MALL? And that is when I found out what an outlet mall is. #kelsewhatelse #midwesternmom #bransonmo

But you know I would trade it all for affordable healthcare and PAID MATERNITY LEAVE. I would leave it all behind. WHY are there no SCREENS on the windows? Is it that there are no bugs? Or are you guys just chill with letting the bugs come in? For science, if you live in a European country, do you have the following things in your home or is it just American culture? -an Ice machine -Central air-conditioning -screens on your windows -A dryer that actually fully dries your clothes -ceiling fans, or room fans -outlets for hairdryers in the bathroom next to the sink Yes, of course I know that Europe is not a country. It’s a continent and that every single country has its own individual culture. BUT I couldn’t very well single out France, or Austria, or England, or Spain, or Italy, or Luxembourg for this video. Because then I would have people asking me, “why did you just call out Spain? Why did you just call out Italy? France also does this!” Can’t win em all. And don’t get me wrong I am incredibly jealous of your cobblestone streets, your reasonably priced healthcare, and your absolutely stunning architecture. VERY jealous. And I can’t wait to go back and visit every time. I like to poke fun at the American tendency to need to climate control everything from the air to our drink temperature but it is very hot and humid here! #kelsewhatelse #midwesternmom #americavseurope #amiercanineurope

How are you teaching your kids to be a good friend? Originally Posted this one year ago and playing this game with my sons has helped so much! You don’t have to lie or pretend to like something you don’t, but it’s also not necessary to loudly declare our dislike for someone else’s favorite things, especially when we’re trying to build friendships. My son is six, and I wish we’d started practicing this earlier, around the time his logic skills began developing at age four. Social and conversational skills (the kind we need to make friends and build relationships) aren’t always innate. They can be taught, practiced, and refined. One important lesson I want to instill with my kids: If you want to have quality friendships, you need to *be* a quality friend. Part of that means supporting your friends’ interests, even if they’re not your personal favorites. If I had daughters, I’d practice this with them, too. But as a mom to sons, I’m especially mindful of this, since research shows that men often struggle more with making and maintaining friendships. I see how nourishing my female friendships are, and I’m grateful for the skills I’ve learned to build and sustain those relationships. I want my sons to develop similar skills so they can experience the same kind of connection. Right now, we’re working on shifting their knee-jerk responses. When they hear about something they’re not into, their instinct is often to say, “Well, I don’t like that.” For little kids, this seems like an honest and reasonable response, not a rude one. But instead, we’re encouraging them to pause, ask thoughtful questions, and connect what they’re hearing to what they already know. It’s about showing interest in others, even when their interests don’t match ours. What about you?

Recipe⬇️ -ripe beef steak tomato sliced 1 inch - Salt the tomatoes on both sides and then let it sit for 10 minutes. -Top the tomato slices with a tablespoon of stracciatella, also known as the soft cheese inside of a burrata ball. You can find a burrata or the stracciatella at some grocery stores and also at Aldi and Trader Joe's. -Top that with balsamic reduction (they use balsamic pearls at the restaurant, but they are expensive, so I just do balsamic reduction). -Top that with a little more flaky salt and some fresh basil if you have it and enjoy. My guests will be enjoying this appetizer all summer long because I will be enjoying it all summer long! #kelsewhatelse #summerappetizer #midwesternmom

We forget that we can teach the art of conversation. It’s a skill, and like any skill, it can be practiced. Knowing how to hold a real conversation helps kids make friends, build confidence, and connect with others. It’s how we help ourselves be seen and get our needs met. And as adults, it’s a skill that can open doors, create opportunities, and even land jobs. We teach our kids how to hold a good conversation with the “Info Dump” game. (I recognize the irony of the name! I mostly called it this because it's a really kid-friendly name and they get the visual of dumping out the information, but I also wanted to kind of realign The meaning ) How we play: • Choose a letter at random • Pick a subject that starts with that letter • Go around the table taking turns “dumping” one nugget of information we know about that subject Subjects can be serious or silly. For example: Grandma, Taylor Swift, The Oregon Trail, rivers, sharks, and cotton candy. We often pick topics tied to shared family moments so that the information we share is also memories. A lot of the time we play to their strengths and pick a subject they already know a lot about, especially when we’re just starting the game. But we also choose topics they don’t know much about, because it gives them a chance to listen, learn, and practice asking good questions. Conversationalists are nimble. They can come up with something to say, even about random topics, and they learn how to prioritize and share the right information at the right time. They also know when to stop talking. They share the floor, take turns, and listen actively. And if someone doesn’t have a fact to share, we teach them to stay engaged by asking thoughtful questions to keep the conversation going. The next step in this game, which isn’t shown in the video, is adding on to each other’s facts by asking follow-up questions or adding more details. This takes the conversation deeper and turns it into a real back-and-forth. Asking good questions is the most important part of a conversation, that's why I have other games that tackle that skill too! #kelsewhatelse #howtotalktolittlekids #midwestmom #bodylanguagegame

I don't want to remind my kids to brush their teeth every morning. (AD) I don't want to be the one reminding them to put their plates by the sink, put their shoes on, and grab their coat. We are working on the kids taking full responsibility for their own daily routines and the @Skylight Frame calendar "Task" feature is making handing over task ownership incredibly easy for me, and very fulfilling for the kids because they get to interact with the calendar to check off each task and then at the end of the list, they get a little confetti celebration! We use the Task lists on the Skylight Calendar in the morning to get ready for school, we use it in the afternoon to unpack from school, and we use it at night to close down the house before bedtime!  The Skylight Calendar is single-handedly taking the pressure off of us and is giving the responsibility to our kids!  #kelsewhatelse #skylightmax #skylightpartner #howtotalktolittlekids

I don't want to remind my kids to brush their teeth every morning. (AD) I don't want to be the one reminding them to put their plates by the sink, put their shoes on, and grab their coat. We are working on the kids taking full responsibility for their own daily routines and the @Skylight Frame calendar "Task" feature is making handing over task ownership incredibly easy for me, and very fulfilling for the kids because they get to interact with the calendar to check off each task and then at the end of the list, they get a little confetti celebration! We use the Task lists on the Skylight Calendar in the morning to get ready for school, we use it in the afternoon to unpack from school, and we use it at night to close down the house before bedtime!  The Skylight Calendar is single-handedly taking the pressure off of us and is giving the responsibility to our kids!  #kelsewhatelse #skylightmax #skylightpartner #howtotalktolittlekids
