A Mother's Heart

Any obsessed cleaners out there??

I admit it.  I'm addicted....to Swiffering!!  I could be that company's entire publicity campaign! 

I have always liked to clean, and since I moved to a house with wood floors, Swiffer has become my best friend.  I don't buy the Swiffer brand cloths, however, because they are too expensive. 

At first I was happy with the regular Swiffer, then I moved on to the hard stuff - the Sweep N Vac!  What did I do before this wonderful invention??

I draw the line at the wet mop, however.  The mop and bucket are fine by me. 

And what have I done to my 2 year old?  The excitement on his face when I say it's time to Swiffer is priceless.  He runs to the closet, helps me unplug it, gets his own Swiffer, and goes to town.  I let him use the old swiffer without the vacuum.  He loves it!  Mama thinks it's fun, so it must be, right?  How long can I fool him.  I hope he always finds it fun to help Mama with the chores.

My husband just laughs, and says I have a crazy look in my eye when I get the Swiffer out.  Hey, we all have our obsessions, right?

Isn't it funny how our children pick up on what we enjoy or dont enjoy. I wonder how much more daily duties they would enjoy if we did..... HUM!? How fun to be able to work with your little one.

I am right there on the band wagon with you when it comes to Swiffer!!!! I would never want to go back to the old broom and mop days. Do you flip your cloth over when one side gets dirty and use the clean side? I also use the Swiffer dusters and the Swiffer mop, or whatever it's called.
