I think I have finally broken through to everyone in my family! I see a huge imporvement in the way my wonderful husband and the kids react to the chores that need done in our house. Yesterday my husband helped me fold and put away laundry and he even cooked dinner and helped with the dishes afterwards! Today he helped with making beds and picking up the house. There have been fewer dishes in my sink and my counters are relatively clear. What an awesome feeling!
The kids didn’t give me a hassle tonight when I asked for 15 minutes of their time to do a few quick cleaning items. They even cleared the table after dinner with no complaints. This makes me really happy and even though I have a few things on my list that I would like to get done tonight, I think I am going to let them go until tomorrow. Everyone helped out and I think we deserve a bit of a break as a reward for a job well done.
go enjoy yourselves- times like those make a mama feel so good!
