The lousy homemaker

When I die, people will say I was a pretty good Mom and a pretty lousy homemaker. I think I'm okay with that.

I have laundry piled up in my basement that's been gathering for weeks, but I'm pretty good at playing Dora's Dad.

I feed my kids nitrate free hot dogs and in the same day feed them pop tarts, but I rock at making imaginary meals.

My floors only get washed when something gets spilled on them, but I'm always up for finger painting.

My house is always cluttered with toys, but I've never shyed away from fun because it might make a mess.

My house may be full of dust, but my heart is full of memories. And I think I'm okay with that.
