Washing

Posted in Uncategorized at 6:33 am by athomemama

It’s no problem to sort the dirty laundry and dump it in the washer.

It’s easy to pull wet clothes from one machine and shove them into another.

Hauling baskets of clothing, warm from the dryer, to their respective rooms is not a chore.

But the folding, the endless folding of an assortment of tiny garments (not unlike doll clothes) gets me every time.

Still, I picture myself pushing wiggly limbs into soft cotton. Chasing down the preschooler with a fresh outfit in my hands. Counting my blessings with each load.
