Wow, is it Thursday again already? I love the timelessness of summer break. I also love how much more I’m able to get done without the pressures of homework and deadlines; plus it helps having extra hands with my 8-year-old daughter and 5-year-old son around more. I’m going through my “Projects-before-baby-comes” List nicely.
This week I am thankful I:
1. Finished cleaning/re-organizing the kids’s closet! It’s much easier to find their clothes and toys we store in their now. My daughter and I also re-organized/sorted all her hair stuff into a nice little caboodle (remember those?)
2. Finished putting all clothes we’ve had in loose bags into the space saver bags and into their appropriate storage locations. I did find a spider in one bag so it’s good I finally put these away.
3.Dusted and re-organized pictures on our fireplace/bookshelves area (thought it was time to change out our 2-year-old’s newborn pictures to a more current one before we have another newborn here soon) which then led me to also rearranged the toys in the cabinets there. Ahh, life is much better when I can’t see all the kids toys/books everywhere!
4. I also made something crafty! I’ll show it in a seperate post though…
Life can be SO crazy and full of many frustrations. Take some time to think about the small things you’ve done that brought you and your family joy this week. Feel free to share them below and/or at CatholicMom.com.
Sounds like you’ve been busy cleaning & reorganizing! I’ll bet that feels great to have it done!
Yes it does! I’ll thank the 3rd trimester “nesting” motivation for it all. I’m trying to do things that will bother me later but that I know I will not have as much time/energy to work on once the baby is here.
