You are most welcome. It is just what I wished that I had learned when my children were little. I didn’t think it was important but it became huge now that they are adults and are not skilled in the ability to see what needs doing and to help.

Alicia – I love this! You are so right – they do enjoy helping! I need to embrace that much more with my 6 year old before it is to late . . . and I have noticed the twins love to clean off their trays. I have to say though, Jaina seems to like helping more than the boys haha! Thank you so much for your advice and guidance!

It reminded me of something my grandmother did that I forgot with my girls and that was giving us jobs to do while she was doing something. A dust rag to dust all the baseboards (sure they didn’t need them being 4 or 5 years or less, we needed to be part of the helping), snapping beans, sorting through berries and laundry (all the whites from colours). The jobs grew as we did but we learned how to mend, clean and prepare foods. All the while Mamie talked about Mother Mary. Yes, we are there for our children but they can help us too. In fact they love to help and know they are helping and not just picking up their toys because that is always the same but different things. It slows us down from whipping through all the chores and the children are more part of our day. As little as they are they can help or at least try and those moments are really fun too. Hubbys too. 😉

God was giving me the same message at Mass yesterday and I definitely need to listen! Self care is so so important.
