a.beautiful.mess.

I am not one for clutter. I always go around picking/cleaning/straightening things up whether it’s suki’s toys, jim’s shoes, laundry, etc. I have even been known to vacuum at 7:00 a.m. when a dear friend, (sorry t!) was sound asleep. She didn’t get my thoughts that the vacuum could be relaxing. Go figure.

And needless to say… toys, balls, cups, blocks, books, a swing, playpen, jumperoo, exersaucer, along with some animal ball thing have taken.over.my.house.

Some people that come over comment and say it looks like a toy box exploded or it looks like a new ride at Wet n Wild… do they even still call it that? I just laugh along because it really does look chaotic compared with my “normal”. But this is my new normal. and i love it.

And I was rocking noah last night (he was up with his first little tooth that is just slowly making its entrance) I thought to myself…. “look at all of these toys.. it looks like such a mess, but you know what, it is a BEAUTIFUL mess.” Thank you God for this beautiful mess. I am thankful for every single little piece of clutter.
