Challenging stuff!

In the book on habits, I found this section pretty challenging.
Questions to Ask about Cleanliness

• Am I careful to air my child's room?
• Do I try to keep my child's room smelling sweet and fresh, or do I make excuse because of the child's gender, age, or hobbies?
• Am I enlisting my older child's help in keeping his own room (and the rest of the house) clean and fresh?
• Am I teaching my child to air out clothing and bedding that will be used again before washing?
• Do I allow my child to get dirty and clean himself up?
• Do I consistently require washed hands for family meals?
• Am I teaching my child to groom himself adequately, including caring for his fingernails, cleaning in the "corners," and brushing or combing his hair?
• Am I taking steps to teach my child how to attend to himself in his bath or shower?

There are so many that I don't do! and this is just the part on cleanliness! Well, I guess I'll take one at a time and see how it all goes. Really, a lot of cleanliness habits are formed through observation and lifestyle. If I can make steps towards keeping things tidy, the children should follow the example.

As an aside! It's snowing! I love having the office in the front room with the big window!
