LAUNDRY!

The kids and I were on the "Hill" yesterday having lunch with friends and attending the art festival on campus. As we left the festival, we passed a laundromat & our conversation went like this...

Me: "Hey guys, your dad & I used to do laundry here when we were in college"

Kids: "huh"

Me: "This is where daddy & I did our laundry in college"

Jake: "Why didn't you do it at your house?"

Me: "We didn't have a washer/dryer in our houses"

Jake: "WHAT??? No washer & dryer??"

So, I explained the joys of college life & not having certain items. He couldn't even begin to comprehend not having a washer/dryer where he lived. As I thought about it, I realized that he has probably NEVER been to a house without a washer/dryer! I guess I understand why this was odd to him!
