Earn Your Keep

I firmly believe in instilling a good work ethic in my children. We don't live on a farm, but they still have chores to do...EVERY DAY. It isn't easy keeping our house clean. In fact, I usually settle for 'picked up'. Nonetheless, I hope it is teaching them something. They are part of this family, and doggone it, they'd better earn their keep!




I found Emma downstairs, filling the washer. When I came back several
minutes later, she was unloading it. Then she loaded it again, and so on...
It kept her occupied for a good 15 minutes or so!

It looks to me that your a GREAT MOMMY Christie. Doesn't it just make your day when you see your kids (in their mind) trying to help out around the house?
