The Mad Dash to clean the kids' rooms in preparation for their arrivals has begun. Bonnie left hers looking good to begin with, so it is only a matter of putting her beloved flannel sheets on her bed and dusting/vaccuuming. Adam, on the other hand, left his room looking as though a cyclone had hit it. I sent 4 boxes of stuff to Goodwill (he who leaves his room trashed has to deal with MOM deciding what goes and what stays).
Bonnie comes home Thursday night and Adam Friday night...weeeee.....
That will be very fun and special. I get to the point where I can't look at the clutter any more and I go crazy. Unfortunately, my kids stress point is a lot higher than mine!

That's so exciting that they're coming home! Everybody home for Christmas, huh? Poor Adam will be so jetlagged he won't even know what's missing from his room :)

I just hauled Chris's laundry out of his room right before I read your post, so I share your pain. But yipee that they are coming home. You must be so excited! Jess comes home tomorrow and Chris next week. he did hell week at the frat and is now "Brother Chris".
