There's nothing more exhausting than a table full of dishes to clear and load into the dishwasher after preparing and eating a meal. Because of this, I try to teach my kids to clear their own dishes. This makes loading my responsibility. Sarah is usually really good about it. David, not so much. We're working on teaching Zach. He watches Sarah do it, and we remind him after nearly every meal. We're almost there. He's got the clearing part down but seems to be struggling with putting them on the counter by the sink. He's got them by the sink, but unfortunately, he also has them below the sink in the garbage. I have to watch the garbage like a hawk. I have a sneaking suspicion some silverware have gone the way of the incinerator due to his almost skill.
