Diary of a Confused Mom: November 22nd 2014

I had to lay my jeans to rest today. I was hoping when this day came it would be because I needed to replace them with a smaller size. I even fantasized about tossing them joyfully away and allowing them to retire in peace. 

But the fact is, they were pushed to their limits in many different ways and it finally gave in and tore in places that would have been socially unacceptable to sew patches on.

I have come to the conclusion that my war on clutter is of essence. The less stuff we have, the less there will be to throw around. 

That's my new plan for keeping the house neat - we just won't have any more things.

Little Z's favorite activities now are:

1. Place all bath mats in the tub and turn the tap to soak them.

2. Throw giant blocks from the top of the stairs.

3. Take apart older brothers' Lego creations - and spread the tiny pieces over the largest span of space possible.

4. Set up a 'Spot the Oddity' game for me by placing potatoes in cabinets, toy parts in the laundry basket and all sorts of important objects inside our shoes.

5. Tear up the toilet paper roll and throw some of the tiny pieces into the toilet - while I'm using it.

I have however discovered that I can get a few minutes of peace if I let him empty out a kitchen cabinet full of plastics or play with two containers and a few pieces of dry pasta! This is my accomplished version of organized chaos.

Sometimes God takes us for a spin. We get exactly what we asked for so that we learn the infinite wisdom in having true faith.
