Housework makes you ugly.

I saw this on Becky Higgins (the creator of Project Life) Instagram feed:


So I’m wondering if that means I need to take this down?



It’s on my wall right when people walk through the front door.  Just so they understand why my house is a bomb most of the time.  And it makes people smile.

Truly, though, this made me reconsider how I approach housework (and cooking dinner, and putting kids to bed, and getting kids to do homework, etc.).  My attitude and disposition will teach my kids SO much more than the actual chores (or whatever it is we’re doing) will.

My attitude, about everything, “will have a deep and lasting impact” on my children’s attitude, about everything. Maybe it’s best that I start to instil a sense of positivity towards chores and housework (even if just to see them do the vacuuming for once – I will get them cleaning the floors with our Bissell vacuum yet!).

I’m still not taking down my sign though.
