YOur post today and the comments that follow completely made my day.I didn't "spit out" my coke...came close...my eyes welled up to be so understood. I would much rather spend time being with my kids then cleaning, so that is what we do. I cringe when people drop by unexpectedly and see the chaos inside...puzzles, books, books and more books, projects, dishes, school stuff, and craft stuff everywhere you name it. My mom always told me that kids don't remember a messy house, they remember the time you spent with them and the love that you give them. That is my mantra. Thank you for today' blog from the heart and for your inspiring ideas/photos. You are welcome to this crazy lady's home anytime.
