Someday

posted by LifeAtTheCircus , on , 17 comments

Someday when I open my silverware drawer I will find each piece sitting neatly in the slot it belongs.

Someday my kids won’t come running when they hear me opening the dishwasher, eager to help put the dishes away.

And I will look back on these days when my 19 mth old did it all by herself with longing.

So, today I am enjoying the help!

    LOL that's a normal occurance at our house. My two year old loves to help empty the dishwasher. . . .even when the dishes are dirty.

    This post makes me wonder if #3 will help get rid of the OCD because just looking at that picture has me about to jump in my mini van, drive to Maryland, and put all that silverware aware properly.

    sigh.

    It is cute, though, in a very disturbing kind of way.

    Haha! I love it! And love that fact that you let her help without getting all uptight about it. Shows you are a fun and cool mom.

    Ahhhh...that Someday. Here, when things start looking like that, I remind myself and husb'd that someday everything will be in its place; someday nothing will be lost unless from our own hand; someday the bathrooms will stay clean for more than one day; someday there will be no such thing as single socks; and someday all will be quiet and peaceful.

    I don't know about you, but I loathe Someday.
