The Satisfaction of Ironing

Managing a large family, my wife does a great job keeping up with meals, laundry and on top of that her position of Treasurer and carrying most of the weight of a new business, Turner Sister's Bakery.

It's a pleasure to help where I can, and ironing my own dress shirts lifts yet another project from my wife's very capable (but occupied) hands.

Momma is the STAR Player in our home, keeping everything in order.

The shirts get washed promptly, then go in the hamper in queue to get ironed. Eventually, daddy runs out of dress shirts so I dig through the hamper and find some very wrinkly shirts. Out come the ironing board and the old iron.

Start with the collar, which once that's done the whole shirt looks better already.

Next the arms. It's not perfect, but it's so much better than before.

The satisfaction of a wrinkled pile turn into a nice pressed shirt is very enjoyable.

Sometimes the simple things in life are the best. Do you feel the same?

I love hearing from you and sharing post rewards. Comment below and share this with your circle of Hivians and...

let's air our CLEAN LAUNDRY!

Have you ever had great pleasure in something as simple as ironing a shirt?

Teach Your Children Liberty from Sin

We encourage parents to teach their children principles of Godliness, beginning with the Word and an understanding who God is and what His Son has done to form a relationship with us.

No one can lay a foundation other than the one already laid, which is Jesus Christ. If anyone builds on this foundation using gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, or straw, his workmanship will be evident, because the Day will bring it to light. It will be revealed with fire, and the fire will prove the quality of each man’s work. 1 Corinthians 3:11-13

Teach Your children Liberty from Tyranny

Second to this is the principle of self-determination and freedom, lest we loose the ability to teach our children the first principle in future generations.

Our children read the Tuttle Twin books, specifically to learn libertarian principles, which most people learn later in life. These books are useful for our family, and yours, to teach children concepts that seem complicated, but are made simple in these books.

Ironically, I also find great pleasure in folding clothes and putting them away. Having a "perfectly" organized drawer is incredibly satisfying.

For sure. I raised 3 boys and 3 girls. Sports, work uniforms, diapers...but I preferred that to the endless cooking. I did both, of course.

While I haven't had the need to iron anything in many years, I do remember taking satisfaction from the process. Turning a wrinkly mess into smooth elegance is rather enjoyable. 😁🙏💚✨🤙

I agree completely. Probably not to many places to iron on an off-grid tropical homestead. No laundry to worry about anyway! !BBH

Yeah! It's weird how we don't tend to take cognizant of these.

Ironing clothes add more value to it too.

When everyone in the family understands that the work load is not gender specific, and everyone in that sense fasen up their, in keeping the home moving, trust me it always beautiful and easy to live with that kind of a family.

Ironing is not just a common work to many but it that which seems simple that many really do not know the little joy that comes from ironing the wears of does you love such.
