    Default Proud of my boy!

    My soon to be 11 yr old, Ethan, decided a couple of days ago to declutter his room. He was in there for quite a while and I heard lots of banging going on, but NEVER expected to see what I saw...............................................


    He filled an entire 13 gallon trash bag with toys he no longer wants...this bag weighed 18 pounds!! He also threw away 3 full wal-mart bags of trash away!! He's going to donate all the unwanted toys to charity...
    I'm sooooo proud of my boy!
