Laundry Nightmares

I have nightmares about the washing machine breaking down.


This is about how much laundry we wash every single day!

The crew folded and put it away in about twenty minutes on this particular day. Most days they dawdle.

My nightmare is that I haven't taught anyone how to help me fold and put away. Must teach them ASAP!

Your daily pile is huge! I will send happy thoughts for a long and prosperous relationship with your washer.

Ugh. I wish I had a crew to fold my laundry. I'm lucky if it makes it to the laundry room... how do you do it? Can I borrow some of your children? Just long enough for them to teach mine that it really ISN'T insane of me to request their help? LOL

Laundry is a thorn in my flesh. I don't think I'll ever catch up...EVER.

Can I borrow some of your helpers?!? I have 2 sons~1 is 11 & 1 is 28 months. My 11 year old gives me attitude & my 28 month old is a great helper already but obviously can't fold & put away laundry :) Looks like they've got a great system going ;) I feel your pain though~laundry @ my house is *never-ending*! Happy WW :)

Wow! :) I think I'd have laundry nightmares if I had to look at that pile every day too! :) But at least you've got lots of help with the folding! :)

Wow - that would give me nightmares too! Love the shot of all of them pitching in...even allowing you to take pictures instead of fold :) ha ha!

Hope the washer NEVER breaks down.

The Child's Story Bible

I have recommended the following book so frequently that I think a post is in order so that I may recommend it to the world. In the early nineteen hundreds, when my grandparents were growing from children to adults, when they were meeting and marrying and making ends meet during the Depression, Catherine F. Vos was at work. She had been out shopping, looking for the perfect children’s story bible. The Christian bookstores of the day must have had the same unsatisfactory fare for young children that they carry today. Her standards were high as she was the wife of a professor of theology and she could not find what she was looking for. So she started to write. The results of her writing, The Child’s Story Bible was first published in stages between the years of 1934-1936. It’s been republished in every decade since that time. My grandparents had my parents and they met and married and had me and somewhere along the way I acquired a Bible. I read from the book of Proverbs from time to t

A Sure Foundation

The kids and I have been nibbling our way through the book of Isaiah for months. It's our first venture as a family into the prophets. We wrestle with the message. It's a book for our times.

Assyria ran rough shod over the Middle East, followed in quick succession by Babylon, Persia and Greece. According to Isaiah, each empire was brought down because of they were quick to gloat over their achievements but failed to give God the time of day. The sin of haughty eyes he calls it. I brown the meat and simmer the stew and slice a crusty loaf of Italian bread but do not bow my head before I eat. It's the little red hen complex. I ground the wheat and kneaded the dough and sliced the carrots. I don't take into account that I didn't make the carrots or the wheat grow. I forget to be thankful that there are groceries in the pantry and healthy children around the table.
