SOO proud of Stepkids

We had the stepkids this past weekend and it was spent cleaning to get ready for my mom coming to town.  I am in a wheelchair and DH works all week, so we try to clean as much as we can on the weekend. 

The kids did whatever we asked of them, of course only age related chores and not too many to overwhelm them. 

The sad part is there mom picked them up 4 hours early so we didn't have a chance to do anything nice for them.  So the next time they are here we will treat them to something for how good they were.

The funny part is there mom always says "I wish I could get them to clean" and all she has to do is ask them.  Instead she calls her mom to come clean the house for her.  I hope the kids realize that if a person in a wheelchair can clean, they can too, and not follow there moms way of cleaning (only cleaning litter boxes once a month bleh!)

  • That's awesome.  It sounds like overall they are great kids.  It's a shame they left early though.  Have fun the next visit.
