all cleaned up.

S is at Mother's Day Out this morning, and I have successfully cleaned the house. Pretty much. I'm not messing with the shower today. I am feeling good about things. Of course, S will walk in the door later and immediately start cutting paper and leaving little scraps all over the house, but that's cool. I'm just happy that there is currently a nice, clean slate.

That's not the point of this post, though. I just read an amazing article over on Simple Mom. Check this out: We are much more responsible TO our children than we are FOR them. Read the whole article if you've got a couple of minutes. I really enjoyed it.

Either way, I just wanted to check in and say, "hi." Until next time, here are some shots of the kids. I know you've been missing Otis.
