Kids at work




Lately the boys are obsessed with cleaning. Some of you may say - This is fabulous - can things get any better -well before you go ahead and name me the luckiest girl on this planet - hold the phone. Cleaning to a 5 and 3 year old is not what you might say - totally helpful. When I had them help me clean the kitchen floor they got down to their underwear and began dumping spongefulls of soapy water on my floor as fast as I could wipe it up. Also, Noah helps clean by taking sponges around the house and cleaning anything he desires. This includes fabric on the couches and the wooden chairs around the kitchen table. Not to mention the woodwork on the wall. It is also translated to the out of doors. By this I mean the brick on the house, the garage floor, my car - you guessed it. This is an area where this might be helpful, but alas - they love to use soapy sponges - they are not that great at the prewash - the rinse or the dry. Also, Liam loves to clean windows, but does not understand that once you soap them up it is just as important to dry them and even more important to clean your sponge so you are using clean things to clean with. Oh well - they are so sweet to want to help I correct where I can and where I am laughing too hard to do that I take pictures. I love my sweet McCarthy Brothers Wash Car ( Noah is naming their business this name).
