When my kids were younger, I could clean a room, walk out, walk back in there would be a Lego or Lincoln Log or something on the floor that hadn't been there when I left the room and nobody was playing with them either. I don't know where those random toys came from. I think a child probably had it in their hand, walked through the room, dropped the toy and kept on walking! A routine is helpful and the to-do list will never end. But, remember, your children will grow up and leave home and they won't remember (hopefully) how clean your house was, but rather,if you spent time with them.

I think a lot of my sentences end in "and then I had kids" or "and then I got married". I'm not super messy, but I have 3 young sons and a husband who "forgets" to pick things up... and as a result I have gotten worse... It's not terrible, but honestly when we clean up the house or toys etc... if it stays that nice for an hour, maybe two that's an accomplishment... and I don't empty the dishwasher right away 'cause something else distracts me and I forget.... it does eventually get done.... trying to get on more of a routine but life happens quickly and somew things just end up at the bottom of the never-ending "to do" list.
