Making My Bed...31 Days Later!!!


I have the most amazing Mom ever! Growing up she made me breakfast every day, packed me a lunch for school every day, did my laundry and of course she made my bed. Don't start thinking that I had a pampered life. I definitely did my fair share of chores. My Mom loves a clean home. She is awesome!

The only time I was ever required to make my bed was on Christmas morning. We weren't allowed to open presents until all the beds were made. I definitely have developed the habit of making my bed on Christmas morning but the rest of the year is usually hit or miss with my bed getting made.

So somehow 31 days has come and gone. I did it. I made my bed every day. I LOVED it! I loved feeling like I accomplished something first thing each morning. I can now understand why my Mom needs to have all the beds in the house made everyday. It makes the house feel complete and organized even if there are other areas of the house that are messy. I love this new habit!
