She loves reorganizing the Tupperware, and putting her dirty clothes back in her dresser drawers, oh and she especially likes organizing out DVD rack. Although I try not to interfere with these moments, my Type A personality sometimes gets the best of me and I end up putting it all back before she’s done. That really frustrates her, and now I understand why.

Emily,
I stumbled upon your blog after posting today’s entry to my own blog (wonderofchildren.wordpress) and was pleasantly surprised. It seems that you and I are on the same page in a lot of ways about children. We even have the same Rachel Carson quote on our blog! I loved reading your entries and will check back. Thanks for sharing your insights!
