Our laundry has gotten completely out of control. In an effort to curb the madness, we have assigned both of our boys the chore of folding their own laundry. They are not pleased. At. All. Nonetheless, Harper and I are committed to the new process. We spent more time arguing and setting boundaries for this new laundry fold initiative than we did actually folding any laundry.
This exemplifies the need to regain a bit of normalcy in our house. We have allowed our habits to become too scattered, too out of touch with reality, to really teach our sons good practices for taking care of our house and their responsibilities. We are starting small, with our little laundry experiment, but I hope to see a bit of success and a lot less drama in the coming weeks.
Master this, and it's on to the next enormous obstacle: getting back to actually cooking and eating meals as a family. That one looks roughly like Mount Everest at the moment. One day at a time… for now, let's just get through tomorrow's laundry.
