There’s nothing that thrills my mother’s heart more than two or three little ones sharing chocolate chip cookies at my house. We have so little control over most of the events of our lives, but we do have a measure of say in establishing the atmosphere of our homes. And that includes filling the house with the wonderful aroma of chocolate chip cookies baking in the oven… just waiting for little hands to grab.
What’s under your roof reflects your love for your family and friends. Cherish and manage it as a place to love your family. If you’re feeling overwhelmed by housework and upkeep-take heart. Creating a home is done one step at a time, one day at a time-one cookie at a time! Begin today.
Father, I love creating happy moments for my children. Show me how I can make my house even more comfortable so family and friends will feel welcome and safe the moment they step in the door. Amen.
