OMG! I LOVE how real this post is! Recently, I shared a picture on my Instagram of my heaping pile of laundry. I mean, it was a ridiculous pile; and that wasn’t even all of the laundry. haha It seems like sometimes people really think SAHM sit on their butts all day, drink wine and watch reruns of Grey’s Anatomy (I mean, I wouldn’t be complaining if I could). #MMBH

Oh yes. I mean, if it were just us moms at home all day, the house would be sparkling! It’s those KIDS in the house all day that seems to be the issue. 😀 You nailed it…and handled the remark pretty gracefully.

Oh my goodness, yes! This exactly the truth! One might think it’s easier to keep a clean house when you’re at home all day with the kids – but that’s not true! Our house has been on the market and keeping it show ready has been a nightmare and a full-time job! I feel like we can’t live at all. And even though I love a super clean and tidy house, when you have kids, it just doesn’t feel like home or lived in if there isn’t a random Little People duck sitting in the middle of the living room floor or a pile of books on the floor around the bookshelf. Life with littles is a beautiful mess and I wouldn’t have it any other way 🙂 Thank you so much for sharing this post and that picture! No ones house looks spotless all the time! …right? 😉

I used to shame my sister because her house always looked a mess and she also was a SAHM. I just assumed that she would have the time to keep it looking better than I did since I work full time. But you’re so right – there are so many things that you have to juggle just to keep up with the kids so it’s almost impossible to add cleaning to the list. I’ll make sure to show more compassion to her and other SAHMs, for sure!

I try SO HARD to be tidy, but with 4 dogs in the house it is definitely a struggle!

tidiness has always been one of my greatest weaknesses. I definitely know what it’s like to be busy and have other people making a mess while you’re gone. Though that doesn’t stop me from trying.
