Chores

When to start, when to start,

Twos, or threes, or fours???

We decided five

Is the perfect age for chores!

 So Mommy got a-craftin'

And Daddy rolled his eyes,

To Lily's favorite store we drove,

Hobby Lobby, for supplies.

 It was hard to pick some tasks,

To Ace we could entrust

'Cus Mommy's kind of picky...

My standards must adjust.

 Chores look way more fun,

With a chart upon the wall.

And stickers for all chores complete,

The bestest part of all.

 Who knows how long the fun will last,

A day, a week or two.

For now he's all gung-ho for it

And willing all to do.

 If the whole thing is a bust,

And it's all a vain pursuit.

At least I tried to teach him some

And our chore chart looks real cute!

(Thanks Sis for the idea. I hope Acey takes after Braedyn.)
