My messy house

Well howdy and hope things are bright and cheery for you today. If not then let me give you an air hug, see there now don't you feel better already. So today, i have been thinking about the clutter around my house. What does it mean? well let's think for a minute... I have four great kids, that my life pretty much centers around. A teen, a tween and two little "mom-sters". Each one of them have their own personalities and things they like and enjoy, which means that 4 people want their stuff all over the house... come in from school and drop the coats and shoes. run around the house sniffing out food... and play with a toy for about a second or longer if you know your brother wants a turn. Add all this to one family's space and it could get a little cluttered.. only guess what... to me it is my life and it represents four kiddos who are generally happy and content with what we have, where we live, even if we barely have 2 dimes to rub together after the bills are paid. I guess what I have been thinking about is that God granted them to me and I certainly don't think that I could get along too well without them. Sometimes, I get bogged down with the messiness but you know in the end the laundry can wait and often does, the dishes will pile up whether they are washed every meal or not. but hugs can't wait and the giggle of a child can slip right on by if we aren't careful. And before long they are out of their own with little "mom-sters" of their own. I was speaking to a dear friend at church, who is retired now, and she told me that she misses those days when her kids who are now grown, were in the house running around causing chaos to occur. So if you come to my house and find it a mess, remember what I said, I just might be cherishing a hug or evoking a high squealing giggle out of one of my "mom-sters". hey thanks for reading and I hope you have a blessed day. Leave a comment and tell a friend about my blog sight! take good care and catch a smile along the way.
