That should hopefully put an end to wearing things for 5 minutes and tossing them in the wash because it is easier than putting them away. Of course then you have the fun of enforcing the frugal rule of waiting until you have a full load to wash-when she wants to do a load I just ask her to add some of our stuff too.
I know we do love them to death but sometimes they drive us batty( and I am sure they feel the same way about us!)-of course before we know it they will be gone and we will be wishing for the good old days when they were little! Ha
