familyof4 0 Report post Posted June 5, 2009 mmm train your kids to help you with sweeping the second floor? Sweeping isn't so difficult I guess and you're right about the taxing part. mmm you're right about getting the part time helper. u bet! My girl and boy after seeing my mom cleaning the house with a cloth everyday, learnt to take a cloth to clean here and there...and both are so happy about helping! My boy can't walk yet, can only stabd at the table, take his hanky and clean clean clean...very cute My girl can actually make her own bed, arrange her own books...but kids being kids, when they want to help, they really help, when they don;t they just leave the things lying around.

pinkpetter 0 Report post Posted June 5, 2009 So cute!! I think... it's good for kids to make it a habit and to train from young for them to take charge of little things around the house. Then when they grow older they will continue with this habit. Otherwise they might just turn into lazy bums like my brother who doesn't even clear his own plate... haiz. train train train!

familyof4 0 Report post Posted June 6, 2009 (edited) MBR Tv console (rounded edge too) and bedside tables incomplete feature wall! The wallpaper will take 2 weeks to be ready... carpentry work will end today! I wonder how long will they take to finish the o/s items Elder Goh will be going to clear the house tomorrow, and I spoke to uncle about the o/s jobs and rectification works. They will do it in my presence as I will be locking up the place after Monday. Solid top and granite top will be up next saturday, any rectifications will be also next weekend. If there is anyone who do not mind the distance and want to drop by, can come over next weekend Furniture and all will be delivered next saturday too! So looking forward to shifting in!!!
