I think one of the best descriptions that I’ve ever heard to describe the years with babies and preschoolers(and even older kids sometimes!) is this: The days are long, but the years are short.

You honestly can’t enjoy each moment enough and life is always happening. You also can’t feel guilty about it. And I think every mother has times when she just wants everything to stay cleaned up. At least for an hour. Hey, even ten minutes would be good!

I don’t like clutter, but I do like toys! No, I don’t always make a lot of sense!!

I love the pictures in magazines showing darling playrooms all fixed up and just inviting you to play in them! (That no one whom I know really has!) 🙂

oh Amber I know JUST how you feel! I really do. It hasn’t been very long at all that my living room is mostly free of toys. And that is mainly because I moved all of them upstairs to their rooms! It is so hard to enjoy the clutter and know we will miss it someday when it is driving us nuts right now huh??!
