Of Love & Laundry: Gain #LoveLabel Bottles {Tweet to Win!}

So often as Moms we think our kids equate love with the big moments in their lives – the splashy Sweet Sixteen birthday party, the oversized holiday celebrations with all the cousins, and the long-awaited vacation excursion to a favorite destination.

But one thing I’ve noticed as my kids have grown older – my daughter just graduated from college and my son will soon finish his junior year – proves to be just how much they’ve come to appreciate the small, everyday gestures we Moms do for them, day-in and day-out. There’s nothing like living on your own and seeing what goes into having a refrigerator full of foods you love or having your favorite jeans and sweatshirt show up in your dresser drawer clean, neatly folded, and fresh-smelling.

But, it took a while. From cries of “I have a game in an hour – but I don’t have a clean soccer uniform” to “You mean my clothes have to be in the hamper for them to be washed?” I so remember those days when a pristinely made-up bed with delicious-smelling sheets and pillowcases emerged simply as the latest in a string of daily expectations.

While both of my kids embraced the off-campus apartment craze in recent years, they soon came to understand, while living on their own, the role I played in smoothing out the potentially rough edges of daily living – clean dishes when they need them, fresh-scented bath towels, and a mildew-less bathroom. My kids ultimately realized how incredibly tough it can be to run a household – even when it’s a little studio or basement apartment – and understood the hard work, long hours, and love it took to make these little details happen behind the scenes, every day.

That’s why I loved to hear about Gain’s new #LoveLabel program that celebrates the love that goes into the laundry we do for our families and how much they love the fresh-smelling clothes, sheets, towels, and more that result from doing laundry with Gain. And who doesn’t love the fresh, clean scent of Gain?
