Oh, Dearest Mother, Sweetest Virgin of Altagracia, our Patroness. You are our Advocate and to you we recommend our needs. You are our Teacher and like disciples we come to learn from the example of your holy life. You are our Mother, and like children, we come to offer you all of the love of our hearts. Receive, dearest Mother, our offerings and listen attentively to our supplications. Amen.

Stealth Decluttering

At last- after years of reading decluttering blogs in which the authors
give advice and tips about decluttering with kids, here is one who admits that she has to do it in stealth mode.

We all know that we have to do it this way at times, but some authors tend to be smug about how the pathetic parents should be more in control, and how decluttering with kids is possible- and even fun!! (yippee ), especially if we as parents set a good example.

And then there is reality... just nice to see it in print sometimes

Oh when all my kids were "little" I'd go in after they were asleep and clean out the bottom of the box/drawer/etc of all the junk and broken pieces
