Helping!

We've gotten the kids doing more household chores lately. Brian took these pictures of Grace and Xander doing the dishes one day after lunch. They have also been really helping clean when we do that on Saturday mornings. They dust and pick up like they always do, but now they also clean windows/mirrors, wipe countertops, and try to vacuum (it's a heavy vacuum!) We've decided they'll have regular weekly chores once they get into kindergarten. I think we've also decided they that will also get a regular small allowance, too. They're growing up!!
