Distraction

I don't consider myself the best housekeeper in the world, but I try. I try to stay on top of the piles of laundry. I try to do a once over with the vacuum and Swiffer every once 'n awhile. I try to clean the smudges off the windows and tv. I really try.

But today, there was a greater force working against me. Not just the pleas and cries of my little ones. But the greater calling of nature. It was one of those perfect days outside. Not too warm, not too cool. 100% sunny with a sweet summer breezy. Perfect.

So that is my excuse for a messy house today. We had to get outside and soak up some sun. The dishes (and laundry and dust and dirt) will still be there when the sun goes down.
