I am feeling a little overwhelmed this morning. It is all about the state of our dwelling. I can't seem to find the energy to get my home in order.

Level II: I want a reward
Level III: I want to please somebody
Level IV: I follow the rules
Level V: I am considerate of other people
Level VI: I have a personal code of behavior and I follow it.

There have to be more effective ways to motivate and help our children feel the thrill of doing right because it is what their spirits desire.
Enough for now...love to all.
