clubs.

Last Friday the kids suckered me into letting them stay home from school.  I am sounding like a real push-over lately... but really, I'm not!  I told them that I would let them stay home on one condition... we deep clean their rooms.  They were looking so bad, I couldn't even go in them or I wanted to cry.  Cleaning them seemed like such an overwhelming task... I just kept pushing it aside for weeks and weeks. 

The kids agreed and we literally spent about 5 hours cleaning that day.  I think they will pick going to school next time!  While cleaning up they decided to make 'clubs' for each of them.  Here is Gracie's Lalaloopsy club...
Lincoln's Lego club...
Graham's everything club...
And Jayne's Loving Family Club....
They each have a binder in their club that lists all of the members.  I don't know what all is involved with these binders because mommy's aren't allowed to be members of little kids clubs.  All I know is they are very top secret and each time you enter the club, you have to sign-in. 
Our kids have been such a joy lately that I have been having dreams about having several more.  Not for awhile... but I can see us being one of those families that has two families within one family.  We just need to get through this next phase of life (graduating, starting a practice and moving) and then we'll talk about babies.  I'm content with the woogaboos I have for now.

Good for you! I am dreading the task of cleaning out our toy room. If you're anything like me, an upcoming move makes me want to give everything away.
