the kids

i just needed to take a second to tell you how amazing the kids were yesterday ... they were all home from school because of the pox, so the house was looking, well, not up to show mode. that's fine because we didn't have any showings ... BUT, as i was talking to my sister, my realtor (terry) called and i missed the call, so i proceeded to talk to anna probably for about another 50 minutes. well, come to find out terry wanted to show the house. YIKES!, she was going to be here in less than 15 minutes. i've never seen any of us move so fast. lexi was on floor duty, jackson was on pick up duty and tony on toy pick up. each kid went above what i asked and did whatever else they saw that needed to be done, without a complaint. we even had outside toys and bikes out ... wow, i still get excited when i think of how much we got done in soooo little time. hopefully, it was all worth it. they REALLY loved the house and it looks very promising.

and then ROUND 2! terry called again after dinner and wanted to show the house. this time we had 5 to 10 minutes tops, but now carlos was in on the fun. WHAT?!! - toys, bikes, and this time dishes had to be done. but we did it, made it out before she even got here. it is amazing what can get done with just a little bit of motivation.

thanks for reading!
