I spent the past few days relaxing and basically living like a slug. I'm over it now and I've begun the cleaning, purging and organizing. First stop, the boys' room.
Looks so clean from the doorway
Up close, you can't hide the stains
It seems that no matter how much I clean, there is always something that I just have to deal with. I've used every spray possible, but the perfect, personalized PBK duvet is a casualty of a midnight bloody nose. Actually- lots of items in our home are casualties of the bloody nose phase. What made me think we could have nice things?
I have decided to work on focusing on the bigger picture. I've been caught up in details recently that have me seeing the negative- an attitude I want to change. So what? There are a few stains, scratches and dents. The room is organized, the trains and cars are put away, and the random legos won't cause anyone (mom) to fall.
For now I'm going to enjoy this clean room because once the boys get home, the blood stain will be the least of my concerns!
Memories in those stains will remind you of days gone by!
