My Two Writing Teachers colleagues and I are hosting the 14th Annual March Slice of Life Story Challenge, in which teachers from around the world participate in posting a story per day.
Once a week
we clean the
entire house
from top to bottom.
I take the ground floor,
Brinton takes the upstairs,
And the kids are in charge
of the basement.
First,
we dust.
Next,
we wipe.
Then,
we vacuum.
And last of all,
we swiffer.
Beds are freshly made,
towels washed and folded,
and most importantly,
every toy in the house
is put back in its right spot.
Then,
for rest of the week,
beginning the moment the cleaning is finished,
we proceed
to make messes,
and track in dirt,
and spread toys from room to room.
Until the next
big
clean.
