The Little Twins Love Laundry
E
and
J
love
to
help
Mommy
with
the
laundry.
Up
until
last
week,
their
job
has
been
to
gather
the
laundry
from
their
hamper,
and
Mommy
and
Daddy's
hamper,
and
bring
it
downstairs
to
the
laundry
room.
They
have
been
asking
to
learn
how
to
run
the
washer
and
dryer
for
a
while
now.
Over
the
last
couple
of
weeks,
they've
been
learning.
Finally,
this
week
they
got
it
down.
They
can
separate
the
clothes
by
color,
put
the
load
in
the
washer,
add
the
soap
and
turn
it
on.
You
can
tell
by
their
excitement
how
proud
they
are
of
themselves.
Moving
the
clothes
to
the
dryer
is
a
little
more
difficult.
We
have
a
top
loader,
and
they
are
still
small,
so
they
need
Mommy
to
help
them.
Get
the
clothes
at
the
bottom
of
the
washer.
They
have
worked
it
out
between
them
to
alternate
running
the
washer
and
cleaning
the
lint
trap
and
turning
on
the
dryer.
Folding
clothes
are
a
whole
different
story,
and
that
is
reserved
for
me.
I'm
a
little
particular
about
how
things
are
folded.
They
do
like
to
put
their
dresses
on
the
hangers
and
put
them
in
their
closet.
I'm
so
happy
that
someone
in
this
house
is
excited
about
doing
laundry.
Though
I'm
sure
it
will
be
short
lived.
E
and
J
are
extremely
independent
little
girls
and
are
constantly
trying
to
do
things
on
their
own.
They
want
to
be
just
like
their
big
sisters
and
their
Mommy.
They
really
don't
like
being
told
they
are
too
little
to
do
something.
At
the
mention
of
that
phrase
sets
their
determination
to
do
it,
only
to
prove
you
wrong.
I
admire
this
in
them
but
there
are
times
when
they
really
are
too
little.
