WITH Success!

My children lately have not had much WITH time from me lately so this weekend it was my main focus.  Today I spent nearly every moment with them. 

We went to church together, they to their Sunday school class and I to service, we worked all together in cleaning each girl's bedroom, and the living room, we watched a movie together and overall was a very good and productive weekend!

After having illness in our home over the past two weeks, our house needed a thorough deep clean!  It was fun to be together and see the progress. 

The girls don't enjoy cleaning, but when we are all together, they are much more cheerful in the process and they always love the outcome of a clean floor! 

They even got to get out some of their toys they hadn't seen in over a month!  ...I have to explain that one...their toys are kept in labeled bins on the top shelves of their closets and they have to have a clean room to get any new ones out.  So far it isn't good enough incentive to get them to clean on their own much, but it does reduce the size of a mess they can create.  I am thankful for our time together this weekend!
