Mine are 11, 11 and 7 and I did notice a shift a few years ago when i stopped panicking if we didn’t have an outing or plans each weekend day – b/c how would we get through the whole day at home?!

My #3 is so similar to Mateo, plus 3 years. Less mature than the first two (twins) but has an amazing vocabulary. A better sharer, cuddler and more empathetic but can’t tie his sneakers (yet). Can play by himself for hours where my older two come to me every 10 minutes to declare “I’m bored!” My response, “I’m not your cruise director.”

Now that all three have after school activities, we are back in a different survival mode. Not the anxiety-induced ‘how are we going to get through the day’ but a day-by-day. ‘who brings whom – where and when’.

Enjoy the transition! I learned long ago, everything is a phase – some last longer than others and we have adjust, adapt, accommodate
to keep up 🙂
