Decluttering

Once upon a time, there was a young couple who had been married almost a year when they bought their first house. It had spacious bedrooms and lots of closet space. They couldn't imagine one day filling up every closet not to mention the attic and the garage and under the beds and every other spare nook and cranny. But as often happens to young couples, they had a baby. And another and another and soon one more. And with babies come lots of stuff. And soon their spacious house became bursting at the seams.

Anyway, we spent the better part of Saturday morning reorganizing this closet in the girls' room. Previously, you had to risk life and limb to get a game to play. There was quite the mess of girls clothes, both some that had been outgrown and some waiting to be grown into. And getting out a suitcase for a trip was an Olympic event.
