(This is picture 11 of my 52 week project.)
Actually, I put the kids to work so they can feel accomplished and earn a trip to the playground. Recently I've slacked at giving them chores but I want them to learn that they need to contribute to the household. I want them to learn young that they can't just drift through life and expect everything to be done for them. I want them to learn that sometimes we all have to deep clean.
There is something about washing windows that they both love. They'll fight over who gets to do it. Today I side-tracked Josh by getting him to wash window sills and base boards instead. The house feels just a little brighter now. Aaahh. Now just to get them to do the grocery shopping and pay the bills.
Also note that Carely's hair is straight. I took the straightening iron to it today. Just for fun. Josh told her she should keep it that way.
Did you notice she's in the princess dress again? Any time she's not at school she's in a princess dress. With lipstick on. Such a girl.
