I always wash the kids' clothes in cold water, but tonight is the second time I've had an uh-oh with colors bleeding! The kids are attending a superhero birthday party on Sunday so I ordered new shirts for them to wear, and I got freaked out that the new, bright clothes would bleed onto the rest of the laundry, so I started soaking them in the sink and planned to wash them separately. But the blue shirt bled onto the red shirt!!! I rinsed and washed the red shirt immediately and thankfully, the blue washed out. Now I'm soaking the blue shirt separately and I washed it alone with two shout color catcher sheets that I sent Wagon Sr. out for. But I'm still freaked out... I think I will just hand-wash it from now on!! </p>
