Before getting upset when the boys make some kind of giant mess or disaster in the house, my goal is to first take a picture. Doing this diffuses my frustration and puts the moment in perspective. These disasters are the funny moments later on, right?
Well, this one wasn't entirely destructive, but it did entail a long cleanup time.
The boys emptied the linen closet of blankets and sheets, took most of the bedding off of their beds (and mine!!), and added the contents of their pajama drawers. And some baskets of clean laundry.
Give two kids a few moments of silence, and they do this.
"Mommy, we made a giant cupcake!!"
