It is very late, as in, by the time I finish this post, it may be time for Emily's middle of the night feeding. Well, her first middle, but it's still late! However, I am trying to discipline myself to post more entries, in part to keep people reading. ;) Not that I don't enjoy blogging, I would just rather read others' than write my own.

Anyhow, onto the topic at hand: chores. Aside from our regular clean up time, which occurs at 4:00 pm every day - you know, it's the time when we move all the toys out of the living room and kitchen and off my bed and out from under my desk, oh and don't forget to check under the couch cushions...and back into the playroom. So no, apparently one whole room of their own to play in is not enough, they needs must swarm and stake claim to the whole house. But I digress. Aside from that job, my kids also have other chores to do. The girls unload the dishwasher, not daily, but nearly (I run ours about every day and a half - we're not that big of a family yet). They clean mirrors and scrub the toilet (they asked for this chore, and we use baking soda, not chemicals). And they fold diapers, though I usually do the rest of the laundry (I've got a 'system' you know). Today however, I was feeling a little "behind," and figuring that towels were just like big diapers, I asked the girls to fold a load of those. After watching them struggle a minute, I remembered an opportune lesson we'd had yesterday on How to Fold A Sheet, and at my suggestion, they readily employed this method, which much success (and giggles): 

They got little silly at the end, folding hand towels and even washcloths this way - 

- but it seemed to work alright and got the job done.

The End
