Now I se...I hated hated HATED chore day growing up. Now I see no reason to believe there is ANY better way. *sigh* I'm just looking forward to a day when Tommy knows that he can not only pull everything OUT on to the floor, he can pull it back INTO a bin. Doesn't that sound nice?Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10650216689414959056noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33624978.post-33067602364393201562010-11-10T14:13:20.424-05:002010-11-10T14:13:20.424-05:00I am looking forward to chore day, in part too. Bu...I am looking forward to chore day, in part too. But, only when my kid (s) willingly submit to doing them. <br /><br />Also, I was just telling Richard yesterday, our lives would be less complicated, and clean all the time if we just got rid of all of our stuff. instead, it's Christmas time, and things keep popping up.....

They are in charge of making their beds, brushing their teeth, picking up their toys at the end of the day, reading scriptures, saying prayers, and then once a week or more depending on my mood, they empty the dishwasher, set the table, and vacuum the rug. Of course, Eloise needs help with all of these things, but we had FHE on work and how we all work as a team and Evelynn seems enthusiastic... for now. It'll probably be more work for me in the beginning, but we'll see how it goes.Geneenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00988987624395532647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33624978.post-2073908220992205132010-11-10T11:48:20.168-05:002010-11-10T11:48:20.168-05:00You summed up my feelings exactly!

And, like you, I am *this close* to accepting it. But it's hard to do. Someday, my kids will be old enough to help or maybe someday I will be strict enough to make them actually pick up after themselves. And then, someday, my house will be as clean as my mom's.
