Homeschooling : One Heart At A Time

Maintaining the Clean Areas...

Posted in Homemaking
Well, so far I have been able to keep my girls' room cleaned. Last week I worked on maintaining their room so that it stays clean. And, it is STILL clean!!! I also organized their bedroom with baskets to make it easier to clean.

Here is what I have in those baskets:
  1. Bags: diaper bags, back packs, purses.
  2. Stuffed animals.
  3. Doll clothes: brushes, hair accessories, doll shoes.
  4. Baby dolls.
  5. Miscellaneous plastic toys.
  6. Bucket for legos.
  7. Bag for plastic animals.
I used an assortment of different containers and laundry baskets, just what I had around the house. It has made cleaning a cinch.



And  I am glad I have been maintaining their room...Why? you ask? Well, we have kittens...four 9-week-old kittens and my DD loves the kittens sooooo much that sometimes she sneaks them up to her room!!!

Now, the other day I didn't find a kitten, per se...I found evidence that the kitten had been there. Yep! You guessed it! The sweet precious little kitten used the girls' bedroom floor for a litter box...and I got to clean it up! YUCK! Thankfully I am past the stage of getting sick every time I see or smell something that nasty.

So if you have been thinking about trying to maintain your cleaned rooms, don't think twice...JUST DO IT!!! For you may find some yucky surprises if you don't!!! (O;

I am trying to laugh about the story...but it hasn't hit my funny bone yet!
Blessings!

I know you'll think I'm crazy, and I know you've probably already told me this but I've forgotten. I just now figured out you and Heather from Running to the Cross are the same person. LOL

I'm glad you've been able to keep the lil girl's room clean. AND that you were able to find the little surprise BEFORE it was hidden under something. LOL
