Anyone?

Anyone want some toys? I'm bagging them up and giving them to Goodwill today. I think it just might earn me the "Mother of the Year" award. At least from my husband. The kids probably think I deserve the "Worst Mother of the Year" award, but they were warned.

Repeatedly.

And at increased intervals of volume.

Finally I just decided I was going to do it myself. I followed through on a threat we've made a few times. I "cleaned" the toy room myself. Three huge garbage bags of unloved toys later, it's looking quite nice.

You know what's even better? When we made the Christmas lists, and started the shopping, I didn't even put toys on the lists. The babies will probably get a few from Santa, just because. Lincoln and Savannah aren't. Don't feel bad, they're not being neglected, they are just getting stuff that doesn't come in 100 pieces and isn't designed to be thrown around the toy room at will.

So, if you're interested in new toys, I'd suggest catching me at Goodwill this evening, it's going to be good!

Good for you! DJ makes a monthly trip to DI and it almost always includes toys!
