Happy Helpers, Happy Mother

This morning I had work for the children to do to help me put the house together.  They are usually pretty good about vacuuming, and I asked them to help with that.  I needed to clean the kitchen a bit more thoroughly than normal, so I was going to start there, but Blythe volunteered to do the dishes.  Wonderful!  I snapped these pictures of the children busily engaged, and I must say, they warm my heart.  I love happy helpers.

Brandt is wearing headphones and listening to music on my phone.

He's rocking out to 80s hits.

He was singing aloud as he vacuumed.

When I took this picture he was singing "We built this city on rock-n-roll."
