Good morning!  My name is Lauren and I'm a grateful, recovering alcoholic/addict.  WOW!  After Christmas, I kids got so much, I have no idea where to put it.  So this morning, they had a job, to clean up their rooms and toy boxes and get rid of 1 garbage bag full of old toys they don't play with.  At first, they were upset and shocked that they would have to do that.  Usually I am the one that goes through their clothes and toys to get rid of.  But this year I explained to them that not all children have toys and we are going to donate them to kids who can't afford them. Then they were excited about sharing their toys.  They weren't just getting rid of old worn out toys, they were getting rid of nice, gently used ones too!  So far we, between the 2 kids, we have 2 garbage bags full of clothes, and 3 bags of toys.  They also feel good about what they are doing!  I am so proud of them.  I am also go through our home. Getting rid of old clothes and stuff.  Stuff I said, "I will use this." But haven't in 5 years.  Our house is messy, but not dirty.  It is lived in.  That is another thing I am working on in my life, cleaning and organizing.  We have a very small house, and have no room for storage, no basement.  So, I am keep what we need and use and getting rid of what we don't.  Someday we will have a bigger house, but as for now, we are making do, and cleaning up what we have. Well, I better get back to cleaning! Have a great day!
