Caution Wet Floor


I got home from a work trip to LA on a Sunday afternoon while everyone was at church. I walked in the door and the kitchen was spotless (the dishwasher was even running). The front room was clean too. I was so impressed with Todd. It's not easy to keep the house clean with our 4 kiddos. Then I walked down the hall and busted out laughing. You couldn't even see the floor back by the rooms. Sophie had dumped out every single game in the closet. Claire's floor was covered in toys and Sophie's room had be toilet papered (not by teenagers ... by her). Then I saw the sign on the bathroom door. Oh boy why was the floor wet? I found out later from Todd that Sophie had decorated the bathroom with 2 tubes of toothpaste and the boys cleaned it up. It was actually very clean - there were just A LOT of towels for me to wash. I love that they put up a sign. Then I walked into our bedroom. OH MY!!! The bed covers were everywhere and the entire dresser top was strewn across the floor. Every one of my watches and Todd's watches were scattered around on the floor and there were clothes everywhere. When I asked Todd what happened he just said "you can't do anything if Sophie is around!" Don't I know it. She is so dang crazy. Of course usually when I have her there aren't quite so many messes...but she can really tear it up.
