In our household, the adage "cleanliness is next to godliness" applies 24/7.
Right now, I have to laugh at this. Normally that rule applies here. But I have a three year old grandson and an eighteen month old granddaughter here for the weekend. Andrew tracked in wild turkey poop on his shoes, Olivia dumped fruit puffs all over our bed, their dog (also staying with us) threw up half a deer leg (seems like) on my freshly cleaned carpet. Their cat (also staying with us) decided it was time to urp up a couple of hair balls on the kitchen floor. I just turned them all over to their grandpa who is fixing them ice cream cones. I needed a break. I'm afraid to leave the computer room to see what new disaster awaits.
Pretty soon they will have bubble baths, a story or two, and bedtime.
In spite of my complaints, I'm loving every minute of it. What special blessings grandchildren are.
I wish you a wonderful and peaceful New Year.
