A Clean House!

What is it about a clean house that is so thrilling to a women? Or maybe it's just me:) I scrubbed, straightened and polished all day Wednesday (my day "off") . Then at three I sat down with a sigh, and looked around. I felt exhausted, and thrilled. I LOVE how a clean house looks and smells. I picked up my kids from school at 3:15 and by 3;30 when I looked around again all I saw was shoes, backpacks, books, binders, lunchboxes, socks and dry grass drug in from outside. Now the only clean place left in the house is the oven that I so dilligently scrubbed and that will only last as long as I hold off cooking in it. Oh well, I'm thankful for my happy, healthy, messy kids!
