I'm tired!

Soooooooo, I finally put the pile of toddler clothes away that was stacking up on my couch. I blinked and now my boys room looks like the above photo...
Geeze Louise!
In today's episode of, "Is that poop or chocolate?", it was poop...on my shoe...that I stepped in at the vet's office because apparently I have a vindictive dog! A lady said, "Oh, I was gonna tell you that your dog pooped where you were about to step..." with a, "sucks to be you" look on her face. I just smiled but inside I'm thinking, "Gee, thanks for ALMOST telling me. I ALMOST appreciate it!" Oh, a day in the life!
The Little just walked by me and I smell that oh so familiar scent coming from his diaper. Is it sad that 9 times out of 10 I can tell which kid pooped strictly from the smell permeating the room? LOL, like I said, I'm tired...but life is good! 
So I saw this picture on Facebook and I had to share it because it's one of those, "Funny because it's true" photos:

Did I mention I have four????!!!!
Despite the craziness, I love my life.  Life with kids is messy, but instead of fighting the chaos, I try my best to embrace it...to a point, anyway. I am a recovering clean-aholic, and while I don't want the place to constantly look like a bomb went off, I try to relax. There are times, (like yesterday), when I must stop everything and pick up here and there because I can't relax if the house is too crazy. But I figure, I am blessed with 4 healthy kids who love to play, and I am blessed to have a house that they can be messy in! 

Choose joy,
Sonia
