A for Effort?

The girls are home for the Summer. Remember Summer break? How awesome it was to be home doing nothing? I remember not having to do homework, sleeping late and watching movies all day.

Well, my girls get a lot of that, but I also make them do a few chores every day. Nothing difficult or strenuous, mind you, just things like empty the dishwasher, or fold some clothes. And mostly they do a really good job.

Except yesterday.

Yesterday, they folded an entire basket of DIRTY clothes and dutifully delivered them to my room (they were all mine and Pete's clothes.)

I can understand the mistake - their chore was to "fold clean laundry" and I wasn't very specific about exactly where said clean laundry was. However, there was clean laundry IN THE DRYER that they did not touch.

I'm not sure if I can give them an "A" for effort or not. I'm thinking more of a C+.
