My kids questioned my motives this morning when I made them pink pancakes for breakfast. They kept telling me it wasn't Valentine's day yet. I agreed with them. It's not Valentine's Day. I didn't tell them what I have up my sleeve. I just handed each of them a love note before serving them their PINK pancakes. They spent a minute reading their notes and Braydon jumped up and gave me a hug. The other kids followed suite. Later after breakfast, I went into my room and found that my bed had been made. Madison was so cute about it. It's not an easy bed to make all by yourself. She did a perfect job though! There were no quarrels or fist fights between kids. We've had our share of mornings where the kids have to get a fight or two in before school starts. We had none of that though. It was a most delightful morning. After school was good too.
I might just do a '12 days of _______ every month. I love when my kids act exactly how I imagine my kids should act. I'll post how the other 11 days go for us! I can't wait to see how the kids react to my plans for the next few days!!
Happy Day 1!! XOXOXO
