the best game

Ella's new best game is Laundry.  


Clean, dirty, wet, dry, in a pile, in a stack, scattered, thrown, pulled off the line, on Ammie's head, on her head.
This is not something that she gets from me, I HATE laundry. In all of its forms. Except clean, folded and in my wardrobe. Where it's not laundry, it's clothing. 
I'm softening though. Ella's delight in 'helping' me has made folding one of my new favourite jobs. Sure it now takes 40 minutes where it used to take 5 but those are 40 minutes of pure joy. Seriously.

    Probably the only thing that could make laundry bearable.

    Ditto one soul.

    It also made me think of my sister. When she was 2 or 3, she would climb into the dryer after it finished its cycle and snuggle in the warm clothes.

    I can't recover from this much cute. And it reminds me of my daughter, who, as a baby, would lie and watch me flap the clothes as I folded.
