Hooray for really nice delivery guys! Our neighbors were having appliances delivered. I watched the guy slowly breaking down the packing material and approached him. “Are you just going to throw the boxes away?” “Yes.” He replied. “Can I have them?” I asked. “Sure,” he replied. “Would you like me to carry them across the street?” I was floored. I thanked him profusely and hauled my find into the house.

The kids were thrilled with the boxes alone but I knew we needed windows, portholes, trap doors…etc. etc. This is what stay at home parents do, right? I can’t wait for them to go to bed so I can paint!
