OK. For years, we have tried to find a "rhythm" with chores that was sustainable with the kids. In the process of doing this we have become masters of starting and stopping various strategies and schemes. Previously, our it seemed our plans were too complicated or required too much Mom and Dad effort so they fizzled pretty quickly. At last! We think we may be on to something. The idea for our "Zone Chart" came from a flash of insight Rachel had before the start of school. She quickly scratched out a rough rotation schedule and started the kids on it immediately. Nearly a month in, and we are still going strong. We'll post again to describe exactly how this works. Until then, enjoy!

I like this. I think I will have to adapt and steal this idea.
Hello Pringle Family! I can't believe you guys have a blog! That is SO exciting!! I just found your link off of Sara Kemper's! What a small world...I always wondered what you were up to! I can't BELIEVE that Ryan is SO grown up now! You left when he was just a toddler with so much adorable red hair! Your children are darling. This is Carrol (Ward) Robins. I don't know if you know, but I married Seth Robins. I'm sure Mr. Pringle remembers him ;0). We have a blog too, stop by anytime!
