How do you stay organized?
Submitted by devillibrarian.
new rule in the new house: pick up and clean as i go along. as soon as i see something messy or dirty, i clean it up. now, this is challenging with a 3 year old, but i do my best and it's working out pretty well. plus, i really like things put away. we moved in to this house 2 1/2 weeks ago and almost everything is done.
I've noticed that if I leave the mess she has no interest in it. If I
clean it up, it becomes interesting again and wants to mess. I clean
when she's asleep and hope her photographic memory doesn't remember
what's been magically put away. I just ordered her a Bear in the Big
Blue house DVD with 3 episodes about cleaning up. Parents have said
it's inspired their little ones, so here's hoping. PS miss you.
