Head photo of camera and plant on a table for a post about the big picture of chores when it comes to managing your home well.
Some days I rush to get lots of tasks done and end up doing a poor job on all of them.
-
Other days I remember that I'm to do my best and be content with what I get done.
-
Every day the Lord's love for me is based on Christ's work and not my own performance.


Welcome back! We are about to hit the ground level practicals of household chores.

Today will be the broad overview of chores and subsequent posts will focus in on different areas.

My goal is to include 3-4 of the following in each post:
  • The How-To: Practical tips I've found when researching or picking friends' brains. 
  • Include Your Kids: Suggestions on how to get your children involved.
  • Reality Checks: Little examples of how real life might differ from the ideals.
  • Favorite Resources: Helpful finds that encourage me to pursue loving my family well by managing my home well in the area of chores.
So without further ado let's talk about the big picture of chores.
