He said that it was magic because no matter how many socks he would take out it always stayed full. When I grew older I realized that there was a loving Grandma that was the "magic" behind the drawer! Jessica and I now have the pleasure of filling Grandad's magic sock drawer and find that laundry is a pleasure. We have a loving mother who showed us that laundry is a pleasure by never complaining and always happily filling our "magic" sock drawers!Ashley and Jessicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14153751269685752048noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6401182055904535861.post-47861916401607826172009-04-24T05:59:00.000-07:002009-04-24T05:59:00.000-07:00Ditto!

I give thanks for my husband's faithful provision for us as I iron his shirts, and his love for us as I iron the sleeves of those shirts. There's something satisfying in restoring order from a pile of chaos.Linda T.noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6401182055904535861.post-30716988479233034682009-04-24T05:28:00.000-07:002009-04-24T05:28:00.000-07:00I'm with you, Monica~~I don't mind doing laundry a...I'm with you, Monica~~I don't mind doing laundry at all. I love the smell of fresh clean clothes. I remember one time several years I noticed my husband reaching into his sock drawer. I was thinking how satisfying it is to me to know that he never has to wonder if what he needs will be there, clean and ready to go. At just that moment, he turned to me and said the same thing and thanked me for looking after him so well! That's stuck with me all these years and has given me much laundry inspiration. :-)<br /><br />womanofthehouseAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6401182055904535861.post-22229566265968247902009-04-23T18:57:00.000-07:002009-04-23T18:57:00.000-07:00What a blessing and encouragement! For me laundry...What a blessing and encouragement! For me laundry is one of those overwhelming....never really get-it-done kind of chores I spend too much time dreading. And we've lived a few episodes of not having what we need for the simple fact of it isn't clean yet. I am hoping to make a change this spring and I really appreciated your thoughts.Jenninoreply@blogger.com
