For the last 3 weeks or so, since my DiL has gone back to work and dgd started nursery, I have been going round and tidying up, washing up the mountain of pots and pans they use when cooking the evening meal and folding up clothes etc.
This was agreed after they asked if I would iron for her. I can't do that with arthritic hand.
Putting all the pots etc. away is no problem as when they moved in, I was the one who unpacked the kitchen boxes and organised the cupboards.
My DiL never altered them, and is so appreciative of my help,as is my son, that it is a pleasure to help them.
They work as a team and I feel part of that, which is helping me enormously.
