Perfect Moment Monday: step toward independence

My kids now fold their own laundry. And put it away.

Yee haw!

Need I say more?
======================

Leave a comment this week with a link to your Perfect Moment, or the Moment itself. I'll move up to the body of this post as the week goes by.

Once you make a Perfect Moment post, you are qualified to place this button on your blog.

1. Robin practices the fine art of communication with three nieces of different ages and stages and communication tools.

2. Marge in Real Life has a moment or two on a tramp (probably not what you think).

3. Melissa and a friend are reminded of the (sometimes) forgotten blessing of health.

4. Farm Wife and her Children of the Corn share a quintessential Fall day, complete with glowing pumpkins and the beginnings of a practical joke.

5. Kami marks a sad birthday, yet feels a sense of peace about what IS.

6. Lollipop Goldstein (of the newly short hair) gets a new container of gel in exchange for the bad one.

7. Martha observes some tight family ties.

8. Cara hits a triple: naps, two simultaneously, without interruption. Wow!

9. Geohde got seven hours sleep. In a row....(way to go, Saag and Naan!)

10. Yours?

Ah yes, one less mom chore to do...

My perfect moment is this moment - recognizing the things that didn't work out the way we had hoped as well as the things that are going well. I'm feeling at peace on LB's 4 month birthday and Ernest's 4 year anniversary of his birth.

Lollipop Goldstein said...

Gah! I forgot my perfect moment post. Can it be getting a new container of gel in exchange for the bad one today?

Now you need them folding YOUR clothes too :-)

JJ said...

I'm impressed, we are getting there. I posted a Perfect Moment picture. Sending my best for a great week to you and your family.

Well that seems like a pretty perfect moment.

Peeveme said...

That's impressive. I'm still not sure my 18-year-old step son can do that.

Cara said...

Ok - I'm late, but technically its still Monday...

Independence for whom, YOU, or THEM?

OK, isn't that just a BIT ostentatious, rubbing your perfect mothering into the face of your lesser (me)?

I always feel like such a fool when other people's kids are more responsible than mine. Time to get back into a shape-up program for the mothering Olympics. I obviously have a long way to go.
