I heard some really great advice today that I wanted to share. My good friend over at www.thriftyandchicmom.com shared that instead of concentrating on my tasks such as cleaning, laundry, etc. as accomplishments I should look at the times in my day that I provide my family with authentic love. I can't believe all the time that goes by in a day when I am running around trying to get from one place to the next or to that one pile of laundry. I seem to miss out on a lot of opportunity to just engage and love my family because I am hyper focused on getting my house in order. Tomorrow I am going to try and really look at all the time I spend loving my family and acknowledge that time as time well spent!

Good point. Now I've got something to think about today. Thanks for the reminder!
ReplyDeleteThis is hard for me to do, too, but I know it's important.
ReplyDeleteI try to think of it more like "I HAVE laundry to do because of these amazing people in my life. I offer them clean clothes". When I stop to think what I am REALLY doing, it's like a breath of fresh air.
