Today I was sent a "note" on Facebook. You are suppose to ask your child these question and then type what they say. So I asked Isabella some of the questions and then I asked her the question "What does mommy like to do the most?" her response was devastating. "Clean!" she shouted. "What?" So I stopped what I was doing and played with her and Maddie. How did this happen? I forgot to just stop and play. It devastated me. It seems to me like every day I'm just getting by. I have to make sure I'm on top of the laundry or Bobby wakes up and has no white undershirts, or Parker has no clean underwear, or there is no clean towels. I have to prevent these things from happening. The house gets trashed with in the first two hours after cleaning. I'm always in the kitchen preparing lunches early in the morning, and breakfasts and then snacks then dishes then lunch then snack then dinners thankfully we have gotten Parker to do the dinner dishes. So it's no wonder she thinks that is my favorite thing to do. I think the hardest part about staying home is the dealing with the mess, it just bugs me, but once I stop and focuss my attention on the kids I forget about it, it just takes that moment to stop and think about what is more important.
