Dear Kids,
Summer is coming. Daddy and I love you very much, but we do not love washing 37 plastic cups every day. Take your cup in the morning, put it on the circle that matches your name, and use it all day long. Yes, even if you had milk. Even if you have to rinse it in between.
If you don't have a cup on the windowsill, you don't have a cup. Live it, learn it, love it.
XOXO,
Mommy and Daddy
I am sooooo stealing (borrowing) this idea, thanks to three goobers I call kids that do the EXACT same thing. Oh wait. Make it four. The biggest kid of all (AKA Hubby) has been known to do it too. HYPOCRITE!
ReplyDeletehahaha I love it! i hate washing a zillion cups too!
ReplyDeleteLove it!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteThink this'll work on my husband? The man uses a new cup EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. Even if all he had the last time was a sip of water. GAAAAHHHH!!!

Love this idea. LOVE. Totally highjacking this idea....once I find a spot for cups.
ReplyDeleteI personally think it would be more efficient to install some type of trough/ bottle nipple system where the children can just crawl under said space and suck a beverage directly. Wouldn't that be more humane and efficient?
ReplyDeleteAnd, I'm stealing this idea.

ReplyDeleteWe're supposed to water our kids in the summer? And wash dishes? Geez lady, next you'll be telling me that we're supposed to bath them and do laundry too.
Hell, I couldn't even remember to pick up my kid on early release day.
Love this idea. I definitely grumble as I fill up the dishwasher with 20 little cups everyday and only 3 kids!
ReplyDeleteGreat idea! Glad my mom doesn't read your blog because I was totally "that child"...
ReplyDeleteThis is an amazing idea! Thanks for sharing!
