Never Underestimate A Child's Potential

Heading out the door to gymnastics today, I left John Caden in the utility room for a few minutes to be putting his shoes on while I pulled back Anna's hair. When I returned, to my surprise this is what I found---three neat piles of folded laundry! On his own initiative, he evidently opened the dryer and started folding his and Anna's laundry. I never would have thought that a 2 year old boy was capable of such! I guess it looked like a fun sorting game to him. Great idea John Caden!!! I think I'll incorporate this "sorting game" into a weekly homeschool activity for him. :)

Another fun sorting activity: putting away the silverware. My kiddos sometimes ARGUE over whose turn it is!
