My dream come true!



Those of you who know me well know that I despise cleaning. The cleaning lady was the first thing I had to give up when I didn't go back to work, and it was a sad day! The good news is...my five-year-old loves to clean! I have convinced her that dusting is fun, and now she is a dusting machine!

This morning, as she was dusting, she said to me, "Mommy, I might want to be a cleaning lady when I grow up."

"I think that's great!" I told her.

Then she said, "When I grow up, I'll come to your house every morning and clean it for you!"

A girl after my own heart!

If this is true, she won't have to travel far because she says she is going to live with us forever!



Hope everyone had a happy and safe 4th of July! I thank God for our freedom and for those who fight for it!

Well, I'm glad she likes dusting b/c I hate it! That was my chore growing up and it was not fun. I'm pretty sure I didn't do a very good job either! Jeremy does it for us. I am very lucky. :)

Such beautiful children! Please send her to my house next to teach my kids how to clean without being asked. I'd appreciate it.

Oh, wow! You'd better keep her! What a wonderful thing to have a child who loves dusting.....I hate dusting! Unfortunately so did my children...hmmmmmm, I wonder if they dust their own houses now??

proof that the art of dusting also skips a generation....A/C is - after all - the granddaughter of the 'dusting queen'
