People always want to know how we do it around here. I guess I’ll share my secret.
We put them to work early washing dishes.
Not really.
Emmie was sitting beside me on the counter one afternoon while I washed a few dishes. She saw the water and was ecstatic. So, I ran some clean water and we let her go to town. It was such a delight seeing her kick and squeal even if it meant our counters (and shirts) were soaking wet.
