    Talking A tiny miracle has happened in Patrick's room!

    I managaed to clean and declutter half of it today!!!! He has SPACE to play on the floor, NOW.

    When I say half...don't get me wrong, it's not because his room is big....on the contrary, his room is the smallest of the house and it's small. A bed and a bureau. Before he had a play table but I took it out, as he accumulated tons of stuff on it and it deprived him of space to play.

    If you only knew how happy I am! I had been putting it off---it was too discouraging....thankgoodness that didn't bother him to play in his room even if it was very messy! lol

    Hopefully, I will finish this week!

    I know- I give in and go start in Ryan and Damon's room and It is so overwhelming!! I don't even know where to start and I am a "seasoned" cleaner - thats when I realize how overwhelming it must be for them - and It makes me less frustrated with their complete inability to clean!! Good job Lucie!!

    I am impressed! The clutter in this house is so overwhelming to me. It seems that even if I throw out a bunch of stuff, the house never seems to empty out. Good for you!!!!
