Grandma Di delivered a few articles of clothing to each of the kids this weekend. She shops the Goodwill in her town, finds true treasures, washes them, and delivers them to our house ready to go. I am delighted that the kids don't seem to mind second-hand since this is definitely a preferred way to keep them covered.But beyond "not minding," I wasn't sure how they felt about the clothes, really, until today.
Maggie walked out of her bedroom pulling on a shirt and wearing a huge, satisfied grin. "What are you so happy about today?" I asked her.
"This shirt still has the smell of clean laundry from Grandma Di's house! Ahh!"
So apparently, it isn't just Grandma's cooking that wins, hands down. Now, I have lost the laundry contest, too. These are contests I am happy to lose. I am glad the kids and their grandma appreciate each other so much.
