I'm failing as a mother

So, Lilly comes in this morning to get me up. Kelly and I get out of bed and I say, "Let's make the bed." Lilly watches us straightening the blankets and she asks, "What are you doing?" She didn't know what it meant to make the bed. I was speechless. What kind of mother am I who has a child who doesn't know what making the bed is? I have failed. Needless to say, this will become a priority in our home (as it should have been, oh, about four or so years ago)...This is sad.

Don't worry, Ruby doesn't know what that means either. You haven't failed alone.
