This is the way we wash our linens...all on a Sunday evening.

A little over 2 years ago David and I upgraded to a king size mattress. (Best purchase ever!) At Bed Bath & Beyond I debated over whether to buy the $30 regular mattress pad or the $80 waterproof one. I figured since we have small children and plan to have small children for many more years, that the extra $50 was a worthwhile investment to protect my pretty new white mattress. Today that investment proved its worth. As we awoke from our family nap on the master bed, Bradley commented, "Daddy, my leg is wet." Sure enough Sarah had predictably peed on our quilt, the quilt under the quilt, the blanket under the two quilts, the flat sheet, and the fitted sheet right through to the mattress pad. Now I get to spend the rest of my Sabbath day doing 5 loads of laundry. I'll be sure to sing some hymns as I do my happy Sabbath cleaning.
