Please Mom! Can I Please!

Friday the kids didn't have school.  We spent the day organizing the kids' rooms and the playroom.  Then we talked about how Saturday was the day we deep clean the house, the bathrooms, mopping, that kind of thing.  Ainsley begged me to teach her to clean the toilets.  I thought for sure when Saturday arrived that she would change her mind.  But she didn't.  First thing Saturday morning she asked me again, "Please Mom!  Please can you teach me to clean the toilets."  I showed her how to clean the first toilet and then she did the other two on her own.  She was very thorough.  I was so proud of her.  And the best part was when she asked if she could clean them every week.  It was actually kind of funny because Porter was crying because he was too little to clean the toilets and he really wanted to.  I love that my kids are learning to work and that they take pride in their work and want to help keep our house clean.
