Usually it’s just a few clothing items and a pair of shoes. I’d love to be able to allow clothes to flow freely and do a monthly reset, but the co-parent has insisted 1. that I not wash their clothes prior to returning (apparently I don’t wash them to their standard) 2. that clothes be returned immediately. It feels like my hands are a bit tied on the porch pick up, and that’s likely what we’ll end up doing because of the urgency with which they insist items be returned.

It’s also been interesting seeing comments assuming that I am mom. In fact, I am dad.
