After my first full 7 days in this wonderful Psychology Experiment from my friend Terra, I decided to model after her and change the name to Operation Household. The reason? This experiment is playing a big role in changing the dynamics of our household. As I keep this up for the full 3 weeks (21 days), guess what? It becomes a habit! And it’s a habit I want! Woo-hoo!
To my daughter
Thank you for putting away your pajamas.
What a pretty picture you drew! I love that house.
To my son
Good job drinking your milk.
Thank you for putting your jacket back.
Good job cleaning up. High 5!
To my hubby
Bye handsome.
You are a good listener!!! (about remembering a website my girlfriend told me about today)
Observations
The ups and downs in life are inevitable. The circumstances will change. But the gift of encouragement will always be life-giving. It has the power to transform moods, brighten faces, and uplift households. I feel so blessed.
