Tonight's photos show the before/process and after of our efforts this afternoon. I got Erin, Graham, Abigail, Joy, and Esther to help me clean out and reorganize the toy closet. The children made a toy brigade...someone in the closet handing toys out to the rest who were lined up and taking turns taking them out into the living room. Then Abigail vacuumed the floor. Then we got all parts, etc. for each of the toys back with right toy or in its right box. Then I crawled in and had the children hand me the toys so I could put them back in...organized for the moment. The second photo shows Elijah checking out the toy closet after it is all straightened up. We "try" to keep a path so that the children can walk in and get what they want...there was no path earlier today and they were having to practically fall over toys to get inside! At least it is organized for the moment! Elijah is at the stage of really enjoying all that is in the closet. He loves coming over and playing with the things in the toy closet. The others still use it too, but not quite like Elijah does. Elijah, Esther, and Joy had school this morning. They enjoyed showing Erin some of the things that they do over here for school. Erin helped Joy with her spelling lesson. After lunch, Erin and I went next door to take care of Isaac while the rest of the family did a program at a local elementary school. When they got back, we came over to our house to clean up the toy closet. Then they played till supper time. We had an easy supper tonight. The kitchen is cleaned up and I have come up here to blog. Haven't had much sitting time today...I may doze off writing this!!! I "think" that Woody walked four miles today. He, Nathan, and Graham have gone to Monday night visitation at church. Erin has settled in with her DVD's from the library. She's trying to finish watching the ones she has as she is heading home tomorrow. I am going to go relax!!! It's time to get hotel reservations, etc. for our trip to Maryland next week. Tomorrow is another day!!!!
