Look What I Found!

"It's amazing what you find, when you clean."

This was my mother's maxim, created out of a need to have us clean (at least, that's my theory). And it happens to be true, which could be a sad thing if you are trying to get out of cleaning, or a happy thing when you find something amazing.

This week I am cleaning my laundry room. Don't worry, you'll hear all about it. I happened to find a Wallie that I didn't even remember getting. It's educational. It's fun. And here's the best part: it looks great on that lime green wall in the boys' old room!


I did think about putting stars wherever we have lived, but then I realized that the kids might take it as a sign that it's okay to put stickers on the walls. Not the lesson I'm going for, that.

And the moral is: it is amazing what you find when you clean.

Now if I could just get the kids to believe me...
