I awoke this morning to little voices out and about. I heard one say, "I'll do the bathroom!" I dragged myself out of bed, curious to say the least, and found to my surprise and delight four of my children busily at work cleaning the house, and at that point, finishing the task. They had awoken shortly after John and Justin had left earlier to get to the men's retreat at church and then decided that they would clean the house for me while I was still in bed. They divided up the jobs between them (dusting, sweeping, vacuuming, wiping down the bathrooms and putting everything back in it's place) and went to work leaving the house beautiful and spotless.
I was so pleased and so delighted, that I made them breakfast. (I usually leave them to get their own cereal.) :)
And praised them profusely.
So, yes, I am bragging and they deserve to be bragged on.
Thanks Kevin, Miranda, Jason and Colton! You made my day!!! I love you!

Fabulous!!!! Mine cleaned for me yesterday. Their motivation was to look for a missing monkey that has yet to be found but the cleaning was nice!...Rachel
You kids are the BEST!!! Granma loves you.
That is so sweet- you've taught them well.
Wow, way to go Kevin, Miranda, Jason & Colton! You want to come and clean my house...or at least have a talk with my kiddos.
Love you,
Marian :)
