Rock hard potatoes...

I wash my kids sheets multiple times in any given week.
Other than being irritating, it is generally less than interesting.
Until the day that I opened up my washer to find chunks of a baked potato.



Why Bear found it necessary to SNEAK a baked potato for a midnight snack I don't think I will ever know.  And why he didn't throw the pieces that he didn't eat away 
instead of hiding them in his blankets I can only guess.

Laundry

Don't you just love laundry.
Piles and piles baskets and baskets.
Laundry piled high on your bed, on a table, on the floor, on the couch, or still sitting in the dryer.
Clean laundry is of course the preference.
It's soft and smells nice.
When fresh out of the dryer laundry is so warm and cozy.
That is my favorite time to put all the laundry away.
When it is still warm.

You see this pile of laundry.
I see it as a blessing not a curse.
Look at all those clothes we have to wear.
Look at all those choices.
You can't see it, but I have an awesome washer and dryer that does my laundry for me.
All I have to do is move it around for a second and then put it away when it is done.
Instead of course, of having to wash each article of clothing in a bucket with a bar of soap and a scrub board.  Oh the all time consuming task that would be!

Yes, I am grateful for laundry and I am grateful to have the fine fun of putting it away.
Never will I complain about it again.
I hope you won't either.
It just doesn't make sense to complain about a blessing.
;D
