Your post gave me the best laugh and I ...Oh,Britt! Your post gave me the best laugh and I really needed it! Thanks! Do you know what a treasure you have? At least he thought to go near the laundry! Even if he had screwed it up- don't criticize, be thankful! I love Gus dearly, but he doesn't even know how to turn the washer or dryer on! He does fold nicely, though and since I really need all the extra help I can get- I'm always thankful! Gus is also better at ironing than I am! If you get too picky about how you do things and the way he does them, which will always be different... you might stop him from even attempting to be helpful...which would be the equivalent of shooting yourself in the foot! The same is true for kids- let them attempt even if it isn't the way you would do it! Yeah, it may hurt a bit to lose a Loft dress or JCrew shirt, but those are things and can eventually be replaced...hurt feelings are way harder to fix. Now does that explain the condition of my kids' dresser drawers? At least they get the clean clothes in there! Zachary needs a little work like Ian...he always puts his dirty clothes in with the clean ones!LOL! It must be a guy thing!<BR/> Ian gives me hope that maybe someday, Zachary will be a sweet gentleman to his wife too! How we get him from beast to gentleman is truly in God's Hands! <BR/>The Vargas Clan sends lots of love!Emilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04427203019545970588noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8534994551990168596.post-13749175992734726252008-09-01T20:55:00.000-04:002008-09-01T20:55:00.000-04:00LOL awwwwww!
