Your Day 4 Challenge is to share Easy Valentine’s Treats with Your Family!

Yes, tangible little treats can make a difference in the atmosphere of our home. And what better time than Valentine’s to find an excuse to fill our homes with little treats!

Your home is such an important place. It’s awesome when home is the place where you feel loved and welcomed. But you may dread coming home because of chores, clutter, or on the other side of the spectrum, bickering and fighting. Here on the blog, I’m inviting you to join me on this 28 Day Challenge to Fill Your Home with Love to see if we can change that.

Every day we have a choice. We treat our family, the people closest to us, with love or we don’t. Either we fill our home with love, or we let other things take over and push love out. That is “no bueno.”

Do we “treat” our family with love? Or are we too busy?

I’m being honest with you here on this 28 Day Challenge. And way too often, “I’m busy” is my anthem. My daughter last night was sitting on the couch, waiting for me to untangle her hair while I finished some work on my computer. My husband said, don’t worry, I’ll do her hair. Which was very sweet of him! But I really wanted to. So we bickered a little about that. We bickered some more and continued working on our computers. Next thing I knew, she was walking herself up the stairs. I looked up and promised myself I’d follow her up “as soon as I finished this last thing.”

So I finished that thing. Went upstairs. And my poor baby girl was asleep already.

Pass me that hot mug of mom guilt again.

Ugh.

I tucked her in and checked on big brother. I prayed for them and tried to not feel too guilty for not being more available. But I didn’t want to leave it there. Guilt does nothing. Feeling bad doesn’t help, but deciding to fill our homes with love DOES! So, let’s do it!

Which brings us to today’s challenge: Easy Valentine’s Treats!

If we want to Fill our Homes With Love, it probably won’t happen overnight or accidentally. We need to plan it. Put it on the calendar. Think about it, but also DO it!

So, because I figured I’m not the only one who’s busy and has these things happen (ugh!), we’re keeping the focus on EASY. And because here on this blog we’re #LaughingThruLife, we’re also making this FUN!

And, hey, why not make it super affordable, too? These are things you can easily find at a dollar store or the next time you go grocery shopping, without spending too much.
