I decided to fire my helper. She got caught once to many times on stealing things from my house as well as from my auntie's house. So, enough is enough, once she decided to go back for lebaran, I never insisted on her coming back.
Leia was the one who missed her at the most. Since, she played with Leia most of the time, Leia kept asking on when is Novi going back, and assured Leia, and Novi will not ever come back.
So, the house chores, become 'our chores', as Leia watched her program, I swept and mopped the floor. Leia is a great helper, especially if things she wanted to do, have to do with water. So, she decided to wash her clothes, or helped me mop the floor. These activities turned out to be the activities Leia waited for after we went home. Last night, Leia washed the clothes with her father, and it became a great father daughter activity. Also watering the plant.
Each night, she helped me out, I made sure that I thanked her. The first night, I thanked her for helping me mopping the floor, and Leia said, "Thank you also mama for making me dinner." That just made my day, the "Thank you" word was just so powerful, it made us appreciate each other, not just taking advantage of our kindness.
A little living lesson, started from a little appreciation of life itself.
yay!! good job Leia..house chores can be turned as quality time juga kan ternyata....
