From Son Up 'Til Son Down


My friend, Becky, posted a blog about doing 12 loads of laundry in a day! I can't say I've ever had to do that much but as soon as ol' Bessie kicks it, I told Justin we're getting one of those huge washing machines and dryer! It's been said that "Mothers of little boys work from son up 'til son down!". How true! So many kids today miss out on the fun of romping through the backyard, never having dug for worms, searched for frogs or covering themselves in head to toe mud while playing football with their brother. Even though it makes for some extra laundry - I wouldn't change it for a thing! They're only little for a little while and I have a feeling that the days they were the most dirty will some of the ones most fondly remembered...

Yes! Those are some of the best days. My kids get down & dirty all the time, but it's so much fun for them and great to see them laughing so hard and smiling so big! And, us Moms, that's just what we do - clean up all the messes afterwards. I like your shot of the dirty jeans!
