Tip for the Day

My kids don't really have any certain chores they each have to do but two weekends ago I wanted Steve to mop the floor cause letting the kids do it usually creates a swimming pool but he left early to run an errand and so I was pretty sure it probably wouldn't get done if I didn't do it myself. My time was limited because it was Thanksgiving morning and Paityn was going to need to be fed soon and I needed a shower and I still had some things to get ready for lunch so I got up out of bed and got the floor swept and got the stuff ready to mop when I had what I think was a great idea. Our floor is tile so this made it a little easier than if it were lanoleum but the concept is still good. I decided since my time was short (side note I mop my floor with a rag on my hands and knees) I got four rags out and gave each kid a wet rag and we each took a three square line of tiles and were in charge of mopping that section of the floor. Needless to say the mopping went super quick when we all worked together and did our part. I think we will be trying this again this weekend since I don't think the floor has been mopped since that day and it desperately needs it again.
