I wish I had thought of this!


Ella, this morning: "Thank you for the note on the laundry detergent!"

Me: "What note? I didn't leave a note."

[Imagine her delight when she discovered it was from her daddy!]

Sweet Mark.

I wish I had thought of that!

Are there notes (or treats, even) you could leave out for your children today to thank them for doing their chores?

  1. I can remember word for word a note my mom left me similar to that when I was a kid...she'll treasure that memory for sure! What a great daddy to think of it :)

  2. What a beautiful encouragement Mark left her...and what a great prompting for all of us as we train our little sweetie-pies.

  4. i was just thinking today that i should make an effort to put little notes under my child's dinner plate every now and then and write three things I love about them or something positive about them. How sweet your husband connected with your daughter that way!
