Teaching children the value of work is teaching me as well.
1. When your vaccuum stops working, take it apart as there's a chance a brand new sock is clogging it.
2. When children complain of no jammies, check between the piano and the wall.
3. When plates are stacked on a tower of bowls, it reduces the number of dishes needing to be washed.
4. When letting your 7 year old mow the backyard, you'll end up with a fabulous Suess-like race track.
