Recently it seems Lily had some sort of a vision because she has been on a passionate quest to organize and clean our home. She’s been working so hard to make her vision come true, that frankly I’ve been inspired and I’ve jumped in to help.

Today the project was deep organizing each child’s room with a special focus on everyone’s clothes (getting rid of clothes that no longer fit, preparing for winter wardrobe, making sure things are stacked neatly to make putting laundry away more sane etc).
I had a tone of fun working with Lily and we kept commenting how fun it was to get the house in order. Here are some scenes from the day as well as some journal pages we captured digitally from Mary’s mostly-empty travel journal before we pitched it (I also appended some to blog entries of our Greece trip):
