Simple entertainment

One of the tasks that has fallen way way way by the wayside since I have been sick is that of washing the sheets on all the beds regularly. How gross! But I can't do it. The kids have loft beds too so it makes it that much harder to strip the beds. 

Solution of course is to have the kids strip and remake their own beds. Reality check downfall to this plan is I have to find the energy to nag them to do it. And oftentimes I dont have that extra bit of fight left in me. Not for sheets anyhow!

I've resolved this issue somewhat by just addressing one bed at a time. No, it's not enough. But yes, it will have to do. For now. And maybe a few more years. ;)

Today, youngest child stripped her bed with no complaining and after the sheets were washed (by me - go mom!), hubby lugged them back up into her room. I asked her to make her bed. She's little, sheets are big, and it's a loft bed. I get it. She tried.

Before she managed to get it done there were various calls for help to her dad.and then in the middle of it all she showed up like this in my room. 

I was resting in bed exhausted from the laundry and supper and the day in general. Nothing like a child in a pillowcase to cheer you up. :)
