That's how my mother kept our house all the time when we were growing up. I don't try to do that everyday, but I AM guilty of trying to accomplish that when my parents come to visit!!!Beth E.https://www.blogger.com/profile/04996230415386423039noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22703608.post-82442945788731700072008-11-16T10:22:00.000-08:002008-11-16T10:22:00.000-08:00This is beautiful, thank you.

I realized I wanted to change when my husband once yelled, "Places everyone!" as the doorbell rang. He was kidding but he kinda had a point.<BR/><BR/>Who are we trying to impress anyway? These people coming to visit already like us for who we are, right?<BR/><BR/>Thanks for the reminder!Trishahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06923869782464087848noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22703608.post-23033518985361928882008-11-15T16:28:00.000-08:002008-11-15T16:28:00.000-08:00Have a lot of fun with your parents.

I also have a hard time with trying to make my house clean. But I gifure they will be more comfortable if I am relaxed and calm. So that is what I try to be whenever I have company. Thank you for that reminder.Carmomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09824661487263192684noreply@blogger.com
