It went like this...

♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥I wake up this morning to a naked little boy beside me since he wet his bed and my 21 month old two inches from my face saying, "I see you mommy!". That was the best! After breakfast I decide to run the steam cleaner on the high traffic areas. The kids are in Sadie's room reading. I stop the steamer to check on them and S and W BOTH come running down the stairs telling me Audrey made a mess. On the way up I see a trail of bacon bits from the fridge up to the girls room. I open the door to see tiny bacon bits scattered on Audrey's trundle bed. So I pull the mattress out and drag the vacuum up and clean that. While sweeping the kitchen floor to rid it of bacon bits, Audrey comes up to me with brown smudges on her face. She found my hot chocolate cup (on top of the kitchen counter, I'm thinking maybe one of the others gave it to her) and drank it and poured it out. So I steam clean that. While using the bathroom, the kids are 3 feet away and manage to spread toothpaste all over my sink. Now if my children were at all compliant or reserved life wouldn't be this much fun now would it? No wonder its a job in itself to keep this place clean. Matt is out of town for ten days so they will have zero distrations in the evening for me to even attempt to clean. And at bed, they cry and cry about needing daddy's hugs and kisses. What am I to do? While it can be tiring and frustrating and even more than I bargained for on some days, it is still the life I choose and love.♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥
