I love the feel of a clean house. Now that's different from an organized house.

When the kids were little my husband offered to get me some help. When the youngest was born, our daughter was 10 months and our oldest was 3. I had two who couldn't walk! This was a crazy household!

I didn't want help with the kids. I wanted someone to clean for me. Heck, I love my children. I totally enjoyed caring for them and toting them around town. I just didn't like having to clean the whole house.

He so kindly hired a wonderful woman who has been with us ever since our youngest was born. She came every week and cleaned the house from top to bottom.

Now she only comes every other week, and I stll love it. When she leaves the house smells so good and everything is neat and clean.

Now all I have to do is get moving on the closets and drawers!
