Lately I’ve been cleaning and organizing like crazy, and today I planned to do that again. But my column writing took longer than expected–maybe because I snuggled both of my girls as I watched “Santa Buddies” before starting my column–then I got hooked on Katie’s blog again, and as I looked through her pictures I remembered anew that I can’t find my camera. I did this two years ago, too.
Pictures that I haven’t uploaded to my computer: Our Oceans of Fun/T-Rex Cafe/Kansas City trip and G’s FIRST DAY OF KINDERGARTEN PICTURES. The pictures I took while we were happy and not rushed, the pictures of my big boy on the front porch and with his arm wrapped around Little Missy. The pictures I took before I realized I couldn’t find the keys, before I panicked and turned over every cushion in my living room and threw all the contents of the bag basket on the floor, before I called my husband 20 times (no exaggeration), before I wrote him an email in all caps asking WHERE ARE THE CAR KEYS, only to text my sweet friend Sami who drove over, watched my girls and let me take G to school in her car where he was barely late. I need those pictures. I need my camera.
Once again I dug through my diaper bag and the bag basket in which it resides, but no camera. Little Missy ran over to help and as we finished (still no camera) I bit her toes. She squealed and giggled before I even got her toes in my mouth, and then as I sat at the computer she sat in my lap and asked if I’d like to bite her toes again. Of course I would!
I still have another closet to clean out and reorganize, but the days filled with nothing are pretty nice, too.

Shoot Lady…if you ever need me to take G to school….you know those crazy mornings…let me know! We usually leave early enough and I definitely wouldn’t mind to crazy school drop offs in one day!
