What an unexpected surprise!

This happened about a week ago and it brought tears to my eyes ...  

I usually make sure Spencer and Isabella clean their room before bed. About a week ago, we were getting them to bed and their room was a huge mess. I didn't have it in me to get them to clean it. I was so tired. So I just told them that they didn't need to clean their room until the next day. 

They both get a bout 5-10 minutes to read on their own before bed. I say goodnight and they, on their own, turn the light off, once the timer goes off. So, it wasn't until about 11:00PM, when I checked them before I went to bed that I noticed ... their room was SPOTLESS!! They decided, without me asking, to clean their room! What a good example of being responsible. (Of course it doesn't happen often, however, I think it's good to recognize when it does happen :)

I remember getting teared eyed and, that night, in my prayer, I could not ask my Heavenly Father for anything, but just thank Him for my family and everything else I am so blessed with.

Spencer and Isabella THANK YOU!
 Mom and Dad loves you soooo much!
