Cleaning House

My big goal for today was to delve into the closet in the kids room, that is the throw everything that you don't really have a place for closet.  It took me a while to get to it, I have been staying up late catching up with work, and my baby is a little under the weather.  So I decided to take the morning nap with him, I don't think it was the deepest best nap ever, but I definitely feel a little more awake and not so sneezy, it happens when I am tired.



Found this in my closet, a dress from Miami days, great for the house now, cleaning, light, comfortable, this is how I do!
 
I am finding things in the closet that I have kept for a while and now realize that it must go.  We put our daughter in preschool at 18 months, she was a wonderful handful even then and needed social interaction and we needed her to be entertained.  So she has a huge art pad that they would paint in, I just thought the idea was so fabulous, it got stuck in the back of the closet until now, she is 3 1/2.  I opened it, and saw just simple fun happening and realized that with a lot of projects, it is the project in action that is the memory and the fun, the actual creation really does not matter, to me anyway.  So to the recycling bin it went today, it was so huge maybe 1/4 of it had something on it.  I love the idea of my little lady painting on that big canvas, the idea of it is enough for me. 

I have seen moms give advice of taking pictures of the projects and filing them.  I have some of the kids projects that are amazing because they also have pictures or really creative art work, so those I will keep for now.

I took a moment to blog, my baby is taking a nap, and I have an hour to get the kids room in order, the rest of the closet I will leave for the rest of the week.  I have so many things that are even from my childhood that are just tucked away in a box with other things that I have saved throughout the years.  I want to comb through each item and either organize it or throw it away.  Some days I will be running around to clients, taking my baby to fun places, and other days I will be enjoying exploring every nook and cranny of my home and knowing exactly what is where.

To each their own,
Please know we all get excited about different things,
Only now that my baby is older and I have a lot to throw/give away, I feel free to put my energy in,
I like to evaluate my present situation and figure out the best case scenario,
Day By Day,
Although a Plan is in Place,
Fluctuation and Change are necessary tools in life,
Enjoy the Flow,
Now I am ready for the closet again,
