Her Chore



I decided to teach Emery how to do laundry the other day. Well she actually brought it up. She wants to help me all the time and too often I shoo her away because it's just easier to get it done myself. Bad, Lazy Mom...i know. But then I figured, if she is this interested in wanting to learn, may as well teach her. THEN I DON'T HAVE TO DO IT ANYMORE! ;).

She was so cute about it. Taking it very seriously and diligently separated the mound of laundry into the anal color piles I require. She carefully made sure the soap was evenly dispersed. When usually I just throw the whole cup in the wash with the clothes (keeps the cup clean).

The funniest part is I caught her folding the wet laundry and placing them every so neatly in organized piles in the dryer. I wonder if she thought she would save herself from having to fold them after the dryer. Now if she was just interested in the toilets.
