I'm happy about the weekend's arrival! :) I'm ready...Friday Tonight- is a cook out at your's truly's home...some of Jake's aunts/uncles and siblings are coming to hash out details of our big Clum Adventure :)... So- it wouldn't surprise any of you if you know me.. I don't keep the super put together home.. lol :) You know that sign you see on Pinterest... "excuse the Mess: we are making memories"... I need that sign in my home...
I believe this religiously :)..or it makes me feel a little bit better when people stop by and our home isn't what I want it to look like lol
So- But Anyways... Last night we cleaned the house up...Sondra is at that age where she doesn't totally understand ..So I'll start telling you... When she was younger before Stuart got here..when it came to cleaning like living room and stuff..she didn't have a job... like I would ask her to help me..but nothing on a regular basis..(maybe I failed there)....when it came to her room:
This is what it looked like a lot of times...lol
but when it came to her room...I would clean it when I got sick of stepping on her toys and stuff..she would be int here with me and picking stuff up but the brunt of the job I did...I mean I guess I could make her clean it up...but that would require more attention and effort to telling her step by step directions on what to do...SOOO... now these days..she has a few chores she HAS to do....in the mornings we run around like crazy and change the kid's clothes in the living room and throw them on the floor..so when we get home after work..she puts away the dirty clothes...and then after dinner she rinses off the dishes... So..last night..I told her a couple jobs more b.c. I want the house in visitor condition lol..and I had Stuart pick up the shoes around the house and put them away... then he lost focus and I eventually put in a super hero movie for him...and I called out Sondra to the kitchen and told her what I wanted done....her reply "MOM that's is not fair! Stuart is watching TV~"....now- at first ya that doesn't seem fair..but here is my thinking.... I for the first 4 years of her life picked up after her and so forth... so that means...she can for the next few years clean up after her brother....THEN when our next one comes along... Stuart can help clean up after him... make sense??...made enough sense for Sondra last night to without complaint finish cleaning his room! :)... Either way..we got the house picked up...except for our bedroom which doesn't matter.. b.c. nobody will go in their...any Clums reading??...your not allowed in our bedroom.. :) You'd be scared what you might find in there lol :)
Saturday...Sondra has her last TBALL game that I probably don't have to go b.c. I'm maybe going to take some pics of my cousin's baby..then in the evening its a wrestler's Grad Party... one of my favorite Wrestling Family...gonna miss them next year...they are sitting out a year till the next son is in high school... ugh!...
Sunday- fun day..father's day! :) ... alright.. my kids are pretty lucky to have such a good Dad...I have a few awesome choices in my life..and he is at the top of my list...Then...the week starts all over again!...
TBALL- I'm so glad for Tball to be over... It really wasn't So Bad...but I'm happy its over... It made me happy that Sondra was happy and I was going to support her either way...Now...Wednesday Tournament game...I really wanted her to lose..but I did cheer her on... lol...if they lost they would have been done..but of course they won and they played last night and now Saturday... Thank you to all the family that came out and supported Sondra at her games :) ....Very Much Appreciated!~
also- I need extra special prayer..for God's Will and his guidance... I'd really appreciate that!
Whelp!.. I must be going! :) Have a great weekend and see you next time :)
