The Most Meaningful Decor

I'm looking around at the house, decorated by squinkies on the floor, yarn strewn about, markers and pencils and chunky clips for holding papers, and binders; a cherry red bird singing in a tree on a cloudy day, a bright stripey painting, a self portrait of a girl with the biggest blue eyes I ever saw, one balloon (that I can see), and coloring books, along with Hello Kitty books and, well, a stuffed kitty, and homemade Valentine's all make for a colorful environment, to say the least.

It's such a mess. Always and every day and even after I just spent hours cleaning up.

But the kids were happy when they went to bed, and I like to think that counts for something. 

(I like order. I do. So I'll keep trying to reign in the chaos...but I also love my kids' laughing, so I'll try to cherish those moments when I hear it.)
