Laundry Day

With 43 babies in ages from birth to three, EVERY day is laundry day. There are two electric machines and two driers but we also do it the old fashioned way with a bucket for wash and one for rinse. The clothes are hung on the line and/or laid on the ground to dry. Harriet was all to happy to pause for a photo.

Electricity is sporadic and so is the wi-if. I will try to keep up but it is also a long day. My comments will be brief!

such a cheerful sight, all those clean clothes.

[Leana Niemand]

That sounds like quite a job! I can just imagine all the laundry!

[deb]

I remember lines like that with 4 kids what a job for 43 babies, love this shot

I'm gonna love your Africa series! Love all the color in this. Fav

[Barb Tatum]

Awesome shot - can't wait to see all your shots from Africa - someplace I doubt I will ever see in person.

[Sarah Munnings]

blimey, that is A LOT of washing!

[Tunia McClure]

I love the laundry drying on the bushes.

[Maggiemae]

I think you are working very hard, Katy! I hope you keep yourself safe and healthy! Amazing to see all this wash!

[Bill Fenske]

That's a lot of clothing to wash, looks as if Harriet is enjoying being your model.

[katy]

@timewalker @espyetta so happy you like it! Thanks!

[Gillian]

Fabulous!

[Ann H. LeFevre]

43 babies! I think every HOUR is laundry DAY!

[summerfield]

that's another back breaker. i don't know why they won't sit to do the washing, and i could discern they're not short people at all! makes me want to go the rounds of dollar stores and buy all those low stools both for the ladies and the kiddies!

don't worry about commenting on mine, too, just keep the photos coming because i'm looking forward to them.

tell harriet she has a lovely smile!
