Wash Day.

For Ma and other pioneer women, each day had its own proper chores. Ma used to say, 
Wash on Monday,
Iron on Tuesday,
Mend on Wednesday,
Churn on Thursday,
Clean on Friday,
Bake on Saturday,
Rest on Sunday.

This quote always reminds me of those warm summer days in the backyard, when Mom read to Kelle and I the Little House on the Prairie series. 
When I was little, I helped Mom hang up the laundry in the backyard on our clothesline. My little fingers handed Mom the wooden clothes pin as she hung up the lavender smelling shirts and socks. 
Those were such happy memories, I do it wash and hang up my doll clothes and blankets.  It is a memory I will always cherish. Thank you Mom!! =]



 The Lettuce and Radishes are growing rather nicely.
 Dad opened the pool today. I can't wait till it is all clear to swim in!!

 Joyfully in Him,
