Monday Motivation #17 | Expressing Love Through Laundry

Last week, I gave you some ideas for celebrating Valentine’s day and expressing your love through simple acts of homemaking like cooking your family’s favorite food, leaving loving notes around the house, playing music tied to special memories and even some ways to ignite the flame of marriage. Today, I’d like to explore how we can express our love for those in our home through a homemaking task we all love to hate; laundry. 

We'll talk about transforming laundry from drudgery into delightful opportunity of love by checking your expectations, taking the time to teach, and letting go of some control through delegation. I also have some helpful laundry resources for you.
