My inside-out-fix-it-yourself system has been compromised. This morning, pulling clothes out of the dryer, I discovered a suspicious number of shirts had one sleeve inside-out and one right-side out. The same was true for jeans. It's too awkward to fold and hang clothes like this.
I'm righting the inside-outs... should I be wronging the right-side outs??
Drats! I was so excited about your new set of expectations and delegating. Can you take it a step further and have the boys fold their own laundry? You sort into piles, throw into bins, and each boy gets their bin right after dinner? Do the boys have a favorite baby-sitter who could come over and teach them how to do it? If they idolize that person, then it could carry a lot of weight that he or she LOVES folding their own clothes! Just an idea for the mother with the good idea that didn't quite work out the way she planned!
ReplyDeleteall good suggestions Julie, just a bit late to train our 22 year old though, good luck Linda
ReplyDeleteOhhh... laundry sitting in baskets waiting to be folded = wrinkes. I'll work on it... :)
ReplyDeleteI bought the boys their own laundry baskets today.
