Kids are known for leaving dirty laundry trails in the house. But this mom from Port Townsend, Washington decided to point it back at the perpetrator.
When Xep Campbell discovered her daughter Kestrel’s, 10, dirty sock on the bathroom floor, she started “a sort of sociological experiment,” leaving it where it was abandoned.
“That’s not an uncommon occurrence and I would usually just pick it up and toss it in the laundry. For some reason in this case, I thought it would be amusing to see how long it would last if I didn’t pick it up,” Campbell told TODAY Parents.
A week went by. Nothing. Campbell’s daughter still hadn’t picked up the sock. Realizing this could go on for a while, the mom developed a new idea: mimicking the type of label high-end art galleries use to present their pieces with, Xep put up the information for this piece as well, listing her daughter as the artist of the “mixed media” display, later sharing the picture on Facebook.
Kestrel, however, was not to be outdone.
