Tickle Me Pink! A Day In The Life Of Little Boys With Chores...

when my sons Todd and Matt were little
I taught them how to do daily tasks
it was always a fuss
but now they say it helped them be prepared for Life

15 minutes a day
fold their wash
empty trash from their bathroom
feed the dog
pick up their toys
when Todd was little I would say
"If you don't behave Mommy won't let you vacuum"
he actually thought it was a treat, lol
I'm sure they thought I was a ....


so now, at 32 and 29
they cook, iron, clean
they're men
have less clutter than their Mom
more organizational skills
and I love them so

Tickle me pink!  Jennifer
