Mama in New England

This is us, as I navigate motherhood and enjoy the amazing adventure.

We are a family of four, a cat and a dog, living outside Boston, Massachusetts. I started this blog as a way to update friends and family who are afar, but it seems to have become somewhat therapeutic & helps me laugh when I need to.

Folding Towels

I've been trying to be more consistent about having the kids do chores. This morning I gave Lanie some clean tea towels to fold. When I came down from the shower I saw them strewn about the kitchen floor.

Later while folding more laundry, I said, "Lanie, I noticed that the towels I asked you to fold are on the kitchen floor."
"Yes," she agreed.
"Why are they on the kitchen floor?" I asked.
"Oh, I turned into a monster," she replied.
"Oh. Well when can I expect the towels will get folded then?"
"What?" she asked.
"When will you be finished being a monster and fold the towels?" I asked her.
"On Tuesday!" she told me.
