Confessions of a Stay at Home Mother – Laundry Edition

1. I sometimes put clean clothes in the dirty clothes basket because I’m too lazy to put them away.

2. I don’t use pegs. And I don’t feel guilty about that.

3. I put creased clothes on (for me and my children) in the hope that before we are due to leave the house, the clothes will have straightened themselves out.

4. If they don’t get straigthened, I might pretend like the creasey/lined/scrunched up look is in at the moment. It never works with my children.

5. I hate ironing.

6. I mix whites with coloureds. THE HORROR!

7. I never pre-soak anything.

Confessions of a Stay at Home Mother III

1. My one year old’s whinging is like nails on a chalkboard. There are times when I do for him not out of love but just so he will be quiet.

2. I love waking up to find all 3 of my boys asleep in my room. Sometimes in our bed, sometimes on the mattress on the floor in our bedroom and the sweetest thing…when I find them asleep on the floor halfway between their room and mine.

3. There are days when I am glad I’m not homeschooling because all three are very demanding children and I can’t keep up with their requests/demands/crying. I can’t imagine doing this AND trying to teach reading and writing and maths.

4. I’m tired of giving.

5. I have over 3 laundry baskets full of clothes that need ironing/folding and putting away and another 2 baskets full that need washing. Because there is so much I don’t want to even start so the problem just escalates. HELP!

6. I’m getting dumber by the second.

7. They are so worth it.
