Most of my day consists of playing with and taking care of the kids, then tackling all the needs of the business and throwing in a load of laundry and cleaning the dishes. There just isn’t much room for anything else. So the house can be quite messy at times depending on how demanding either the kids or the business are that day. Today was one of those days. But as I was walking across the living room floor on my way to bed (with my laptop no less) I noticed my favorite dress pillows from the front room that are really only for decor smashed into one of the girls pottery barn chairs in a make shift bed for one of her teddy bears. A couple steps more is yet another stuffed animal shoved into Katie’s snow boot. And with it appears to be a small toy meant to give the animal comfort. So even with all the mess-how can that not make you smile and remind you that it is all worth while.
