This morning Alethea pointed to a spot on the living room floor and said, “Crumbs!”

Looking up from the lunch I was preparing for her, I replied, “Yes, honey, I know, I need to clean the house.”

She looked at me and said quite matter-of-factly, “It’s very dirty.”

Sigh… just what I need.  A two year old criticizing my domestic skills.

But she’s right.  The house is a mess, piano lessons are starting tomorrow, we haven’t finished potty training (will we ever?!?!) and of course, I’m in over my head with projects in my house, projects at church and projects that are still in my brain, but boy would I ever like to find time to get them out of there.  Oh, and Lydia hasn’t pooped in days (can we say craaaankeeeey)!

Gaaaah!

On the bright side, Alethea seems to be finally getting over this mystery illness that has been plaguing her during the past week, the weather is amazingly gorgeous and well, it’s hard to be too frustrated when your kids are just so doggone cute.

Because purple boots go with anything…

And because there is nothing quite so funny as a baby with a mustache…

And with that I’m off to sweep my floors.

Happy Wednesday!
