We have returned home from two days away. We celebrated Thanksgiving with my wonderful honey's wonderful family. Six adults, five children (all 7 years old and younger) and more food than we could eat in three days (and we did try!).
We are now preparing to put away the fall decorations and get out the Christmas ones. The boys have jumped in and put away their thousands of legos, unpacked their duffle bags from the holiday travels, and are willing to help with whatever I have asked them to do.
The kitchen is neat, the living room has actually been swept, and the pictures have been dusted.
Why this sudden desire to clean and help? Where did this wonderful behavior come from? Did someone mention Christmas? Presents?
What a fun feeling to experience. . .hold on to it. Have a great time decorating. don't forget the pictures! MOM
