Today, Ellie & Tanner learned the basics of ironing.
We started simple. How to set up the ironing board. What all the dials and buttons mean on the iron. How to refill it with water. The shiny metal part is hot! Don’t touch!
They started learning on dinner napkins and how not to press wrinkles into the fabric. They complained a little bit (not much) while they were doing it. I found out later from Mike that they had bragged about learning to iron today. Of course, he sugarcoats a lot, so it could have been, “Mom, made us learn to iron today! 😦 ”
Yes, I made them smile in the photos.
