Maggie Makes Four!

This journal started off documenting the adoption of our youngest daughter. It now follows the twist and turns of our lives as we raise these two amazing little creatures into the best women they can become.

If you give a Mom a load of laundry....

If you give a mom a load of clean laundry, she will try to hang up one of her shirts.

If she tries to hang up her shirt in her closet, she will notice she still owns many outdated suits.

The outdated suits will make her want to make a donation to charity.

While sorting her suits for charity, she will notice that she has many icky hangers cluttering up her closet.

This will make her realize she needs to get rid of the icky hangers too, if she wants a more organized closet.

While taking icky hangers out to the trash, she will notice more clothes in the drier are ready to be folded.

She will take the dry clothes into her room and toss them on her bed.

She will start folding those clothes and walk back into her closet with a pair of her pants.

Once back in the closet, she will remember the charity and start loading the old work clothes into bags for charity.

After she puts together 6 shopping bags for charity, she realizes most of her shoes are outdated too, but some are not worthy of charity and just need to be thrown away.

While walking through the garage she realizes there are more towels that need to be washed, so she carries them back into the laundry room.

After she starts a load of towels, she goes back to her room and keeps folding clothes.

While hanging more clothes in the closet, she trips over one of the shopping bags for charity and falls down.

It feels so good lying on the floor, she wants to take a nap like her kids.

She finds something soft to put her head on and starts to fall asleep when one of her children cries, "Mommy, I'm wet."

She looks down, realizes she is sleeping on the shirt she originally wanted to hang in her closet, tosses it back on the laundry pile and goes to strip her daughter's bed.

After she piles the dirty sheets from her child's room in the hall and starts a video for her kids, she goes back to her room, because there is this shirt, she really needs to hang up.
