I have several special needs kids. They wet their beds as fast as I can wash the bedding. Companies might even make larger models now. I bought mine a few years ago. I still wash every hour of the day. I even added a top loader set. Some day, I'll leave the laundry room.Yagwithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16227639255343673341noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-626820356307919755.post-23806043504559005372013-11-23T10:02:05.956-08:002013-11-23T10:02:05.956-08:00Your kids are still little!

We call it Tyler Teamwork and our moto is 'Many hands make quick work'. Please pray for me to find the right solution so our laundry isn't so chaotic.

I do mine when I get home from work and my dh does his own (sometimes he does mine also, lol!). The youngest one does the running around to take the laundry completed to the bedrooms of the owners.LMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17214360611619599465noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-626820356307919755.post-42806963710304719202013-11-20T19:32:17.824-08:002013-11-20T19:32:17.824-08:00Eh, Erin is close enough! :D Same serger, same v...Eh, Erin is close enough! :D Same serger, same van, a kid with the same name as one of mine...

I wish I'd thought of that in my last house when I actually had cabinets in my laundry room. I WILL remember that for the next house though!!! :D<br /><br />I meant to ask this on your last post about homeschooling but do you have any tips for keeping the littles busy while schooling with the bigger kids? It's just chaos over here!!<br /><br />Love this series, thank you!Jenihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16017214095733677819noreply@blogger.com
