A Problem

I have a problem.

I'm hoping to solve it by writing it out here.

You see, I have three big girls
and they all read my blog
but for some reason,
they don't hear my words.

My problem is this:
The big girls can't seem to get the message that they are 
NOT
to empty the dishwasher.
That is Missy's job.

I would thank you very much if you would all quit being so efficient.
Missy loves to empty the dishwasher
and it's good for her.
I know it takes three times as long and we find dishes in odd places about the kitchen,
but she's learning and she loves it.

So Please, please, please
stop emptying the dishwasher!!

I never thought I would have to ask.

3 big girls...enjoy this time of not not emptying the dishwasher. :) Maybe you could help vacuume instead.

Ok Mom, but it is kinda nice to have breakfast dishes done before lunch!....

She'll get them done first thing... especially if you all allow her to make it a habit :-)

This is too funny. You will NEVER see a post asking my older kids to not do something helpful around the house. Ha. Can't even fathom having the need to do this. UGH. My older kids are way to busy doing their own thing to WANT to be helpful.

Good girls. Wow. Good good girls.

Where did I go wrong with my kids? Boo Hoo.
