31 Days to Clean Having a Martha House the Mary way
Day 4 - A Place to Put Your Feet Up
Mary Challenge: Invite over a friend and allow them to “put their feet up.” Don’t worry about making everything just right, instead, enjoy their company.
I haven't had the privilege of doing this yet but hope to get to have someone or a group of people over SOON! This is already a custom in our home so I feel I'll fair well, even with a drop in!
Martha Challenge: Kitchen - Clean your oven and microwave.
Mary Challenge: Ask your family what makes them feel the most loved when it comes to you caring for your home – ask them to be specific so that you can begin (or continue) to give life to your domain.
My 3 babes under 3 just stared at me... hehe
My sweet, amazing, encouraging hubby told me it makes him comfortable, (and I guess) feel loved when he comes home every afternoon and the house (mainly the living room) is picked up. He also said that this makes him more aware of cleaning/keeping things picked up daily and when he's watching the kiddos for me. *Bonus! He also appreciates it when he comes down stairs, from his nightly routine of putting the girls to bed, to find I've done the nightly load of laundry and dishes as well as picked up any stragglers from the girl's game of "clean up" for bed. YAY!
Martha Challenge: Kitchen - Dust tops of refrigerator, cabinets, and shelves. Clean and shine the outsides of drawers and cabinets.
Well, that's my excuse anyway ;o) Not cleaning them well a year ago when we moved in was a real contributing factor but hey, I was prego and exhausted...yeah, I know, another excuse ;o)
The Valley Church was planted on Easter 2013. Our church was NOT destroyed by the tornado because the church is a people not a building. Our meeting space may be gone but we will continue to be a light for Jesus in this community!
