Housekeeping?

It is ten o'clock at night and I'm gazing around my house. One might venture to ask what exactly I did all day. It couldn't have been mopping-I have spots on my kitchen floor. It couldn't have been doing dishes-I have dishes in my sink. It couldn't have been doing laundry-I have a load sitting in the basket next to my couch. It couldn't have been picking up-I have a stuffed giraffe attempting to cook a little wooden pizza for a midnight snack in the middle of my living-room floor. Exactly what have I been doing with my day? I must have dreamed I cleaned my house (although I prefer the dream of a balmy deserted island with a fabulous book to read and a studly cabana boy bringing me cute drinks with little umbrellas in them). *Sigh* I guess this means I must attempt to set my house in order, yet again, tomorrow.

I hear ya! Believe it or not, I actually put Ezra's toys all back together (ya know, like all the animals back in the ark) today. By the time he went to bed, at least half of the things had been taken apart and strewn about. I'm just impressed that you attempted!

Just like Whit said...at least you attempted!! Give yourself a BIG pat on the back for that. Just think, if you did nothing else, you taught your boys that cleaning and keeping a clean home is important. Mmmmm, but that island, fruity drinks and cabana boy did sound nice!

So glad it's not just me! I consider it a success if the toys are in their spots at any point during the day. And that's with one kid! -Trish
