Do you ever have a hard time fitting everything in? Well, even if you don't... I DO! In a regular month I find it challenging to teach my children preschool, help THEM do THEIR chores, clean the house, laundry that never ever ever ever ends, read to them, make a meal or three, do my church calling, maybe fit in a little project here or there... (and what the heck is "me time"?)
So now that the holidays are here the real fun begins. I love to do homemade gifts... and it is really fun now that my kids are older, to teach them how to make gift for their friends and each other. Unfortunately, I don't have a maid or an Alice from the Brady Bunch to help with all the regular stuff. So each day its a, "Hmmm... do I do fun gift making or clean and clean and clean." Tough choice right? Well, the cleaning never stays done anyway, so what the heck.
Hope you are all having a fun filled holiday season!!!
Our little bit of heaven! True love + sweet peas = heaven on earth!

Great post! Dito!
100% with you!
That is funny that you mentioned Alice from Brady Bunch. Just yesterday Chelsea, my 6year old, said "mom we really need to get a maid...like Alice"
I always go for fun first! Work always patiently waits for me!
I think laundry, dishes and clutter somehow manage to reproduce on their own.
I think you need to send some of your ideas my way. I love your pirate outfits down below made from brown paper bags!
It's great to hear from you!
Cleaning should always be secondary to good family mess-making fun. :)
