🫣Confession:
My least favorite chore is dishes. 🍽️🧼 #meaningfulovermodish
I’ll pretty much do any other chore in my house before doing dishes. I try to simplify as I can, but at the end of the day, they still need done, right?
There was a recent day I knew the dishes were going to need to be unloaded and reloaded as I had been doing some cooking and such. I was kind of dreading it, and decided to leave it till last thing. I was going to do it, but I’d just wait till last… Mind you, I didn’t even really reason this out loud, but just mentally grumbled and reminded myself that they were going to need to get done, and I better prioritize it that day.
Well, the day had passed by and I had finished most of my other home items that needed done. And the dishes were pretty much just staring at me at this point. I went to mindlessly do something else, and all the sudden, Hudson starts unloading the dishes.
Just doing it.
It was the sweetest most provoking gesture to help me get it done. We did it together and not only did the dishes get done, and I had a better attitude doing it, but he also had I this opportunity to learn where things go and how to do it himself.
“Behold, children are a heritage from the Lord, the fruit of the womb a reward.”
Psalm 127:3
Hudson truly is a reward. He is good fruit, and shows good fruit. I’m so thankful for the little helper he was then to me-and is, everyday!
