This afternoon I fell asleep while the kids
were watching their movie. Two hours later I woke up to find that the
kids had put themselves in quiet time, and Jonathan, who said he "didn't
want to be in the bedroom and disturb me" had CLEANED THE HOUSE. I
couldn't believe my eyes. He had put all the toys and art supplies
away (no small feat, after our busy morning!) put away the food from
lunch time, organized my desk, and wiped
down all the counters and the table. Oh, and rinsed the dishes and
started the dishwasher. This is what the house looked like when I got
up.
Kitchen:
Table:
Living room:
Desk:
He even lined up my pens. I may have walked around with a stunned expression for awhile.
And then praised and thanked him extravagantly. Because you know what? That was an extravagant gift that he gave me.
And it was definitely the best way to wake up EVER! :)
