While Nick is out cutting wood (bless him!) and I'm painting downstairs the kids decided to set up a market in the living room. Which is great. Mostly. However, I confess to not looking forward to organizing the return of the piles of books, movies, stuffed animals, play jewelry, plastic food, weapons, costumes, and whatever else they dragged out of their bedrooms. Oh well. Creativity is a wonderful thing, even if it gets a bit messy!
