It all starts with one toy...

Saturday morning as the kids and I were just waking up, I noticed it was snowing pretty hard. I commented that I hoped it wouldn't snow all day and then I said "Well, I suppose it is ok because we have plenty to do inside." I was actually referring to cleaning and laundry but Lefty took it to mean we have plenty of toys. He said: "Yep. We have like a thousand toys in here." then he paused for a moment and said "It all started with just one little toy."

I laughed so hard. Isn't true? When I had my first son. He was so tiny and didn't do a whole heck of a lot but eat and sleep and yet his stuff consumed our tiny house. Now, three kids later there are cars, Legos, Knex, books, dolls, tea party stuff and much, much more all over the house -- and it started with just one little toy 8 years ago!

This is Lefty eating breakfast with tool goggles on -- don't ask me why he has the goggles on, but it cracked me up so I had to post it here!

LOVE the goggles. I imagine cereal tastes much better with goggles on. Wouldn't it have to?

LOL, that is so funny. I love that (1) he had thoughts of playing while yours were of cleaning and (2) he is SOOO right.
