So her Mama is in total scrub mode today (and loving it!) - scrubbin' high shelves in the kitchen, washing walls, cleaning out containers, washing the fridge...
and the children know I'm Madly (and joyfully) cleaning.
They also know that I want to super-shine their bedrooms while I'm at it (I'm totally taking advantage of this super-speed energy I have and being sooo grateful for it),
so I asked Madd how her room was coming.
She hasn't really been in there.
"It's good."
I smiled. "Is it? Is it ready for me to shine up and vacuum?" It's been a nightmare, pretty much.
"I'll go see..."
She comes back in just a second....
"Well", slightest pause, "It's pretty much the way I want it!"
lol
Good enough for her, I s'pose.
Who says it's just adults that are stuck in their ways. :) Lovely of you to honour her space. You are such a good mama. xo -Debbie
ReplyDeleteYou rock, Mama :)
ReplyDeleteI applaud you for using your extra energy for scrubbing.... it is just way too hot here for me to lift a mop... LOL.
ReplyDeleteMaddie is a dear.
Haha! Well, you can't argue with that!! Dylan's room is pretty much the same way. There is a method to the chaos :)
ReplyDeleteYep, same here. He goes to get the room in order, ready for me to do a general dust and vacuum. He doesn't come back, has lost himself amongst all those Transformers and insects he keeps all over the place!
ReplyDeleteI had a blissful couple of hours yesterday, deep cleaning the sitting room as the good man took all four children on an epic bike ride.
ReplyDeleteI dusted, mopped, hoovered, rearranged, cleared and tidied to my little hearts content and it was awesome!!
