Well, everyone learns at a different rate, but I believe my kids may have leapt ahead today. Chores have been slipping a bit in urgency and this morning we found a very messy kitchen and a dishwasher that hadn't been run. Remembering back to the lessons of his mother, Michael had them completely unload the dishwasher and wash everything by hand. Apparently, when he and his brother were little, they didn't clean their dishes very well and their mom unloaded all the cupboards and made them rewash everything. The kids were reminded several times throughout this recollection that they had no dishwasher to help! There was plenty of time for reminiscing during this procedure!
This was certainly a time of life lessons. We'll see the outcome in the future!
