I've been spending most of the morning cleaning and getting ready for the weekend. Kind of funny, like its some kind of event. I do know that if I get all of my "chores" done there is a better possibility of doing something fun and "familyish" tomorrow after David is finished with his chores( which he did confirm in a phone conversation this morning).
I don't know about you but music inspires me in every area of my life, and especially so when I have to clean. The problem is that I don't want to hear any other kind of media in the background like the TV, Leapster, computer...I know, I know I can just forbid it all and make the children play together, but then between breaking up the fights and so on I wouldn't get much cleaning done.
So, I turned on the TV upstairs for the little cuties and sent them up to play or watch, of course with a snack in hand, so that Bebo (Norman, that is) and I could get my cleaning done in record fashion and I could have a mini-worship time as well. ( BTW, he is my new favorite artist)
I reminded Ethan as he headed upstairs to please not eat on my bed. Crackers and sheets don't do well together. His next question was:
"Can I sit on that giant box with all your old stuff?"
The little dear is referring to a big wooden chest at the end of my bed filled with all sorts of personal mementos. But I think his description of it may be more accurate.

i did tell you that rusty and bebo went to high school together, right? :) hope you do something family funish tomorrow!
If you play the music loud enough, you can almost drown the "other" noise out! Oops - did I say that out loud?
Bebo is great! I'm loving his newest album. Hope you got a lot of cleaning done!
So true, kids see things so much simplier than we do.
