As I sit here in my dirty, dirty house wishing my 3 beautiful children would be whisked away by a Mary Poppins type for a week so I could catch up on the laundry, dishes, scrubbing, vacuuming, dusting, organizing, planning, shopping and on and on and on!!!!!!!!!! I'm just so tired of being INTERRUPTED when I'm trying to accomplish a task! Then I remember something that an old boss of mine gave us to help with customer service. It helped put things in perspective for me in that workplace and I realized today they could help me put things in perspective here in my home (aka my new workplace). Here it is below, I substituted the words "children" for "customers" and where appropriate:
A. Our children (and husband) are the most important people we know.
B. They are not an interruption of our work, they are the purpose of it.
C. Our children are the reason for our being here at home.
D. They are not cold statistics, rather, they are human beings.
E. Children are not to argue with - but to help.
F. Children are persons who come to us for assistance in filling their needs.
G. Children are deserving of the most courteous and attentive treatment we can offer.
H. Children are the ones who make it possible for us to earn our salaries (heavenly salaries, that is).
I. Children (along with us and our husbands) are the lifeblood of our home.
I want to put a copy of this on my fridge!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You know what? I think I'll do just that!
How are you doing on your "customer service" today? Frankly, I'm stinking at it at the moment but I aspire to do better!
