Keep in mind you are taking care of the house as the Kohanim took care of the Bais HaMiksosh. A Jewish home is holy. When you diaper a child remember that you have been given the great and awesome privilege of raising Hashem’s children for him. And so too everything you do for your family. How would you feel if you were given the great honor of removing the litter in the Bais HaMikdosh, as you walked through the courtyard picking up the matter that disturbed it’s perfection, as you worked, the Schechina smiled upon you, and elevated your spirit. THAT is what you are doing. It is hidden, on purpose, but that is what is happening.
If you can remember that, you will be fulfilling the very reason for which you were created.
