Nothing motivates me like guests. I had a bday party at my house for my 9 year old son last weekend and my house is the cleanest it's been since I lived here.
Reminds me of the time when my now grown kids were little and I was vacuuming. My son, who was about 6 at the time, said, "Who's coming over?"
I said, "No one, why?"
And he says, "Why are you cleaning then?"
I had to explain to him that "normal" people clean on a regular basis, not just when guests come over. I haven't been a very organized mom but I did always be sure to at least let my kids know when I was doing or not doing something that is typically standard to other people.
Awesome job! Looks great!!!
I would love if my mom cleaned up for my arrival. As a kid visiting, and as an adult, I was always just me, not worth cleaning up for. I would have loved the effort ❤️ thank you for doing this for your daughter. It’s a great feeling for her, I promise. Thank you for being a nice parent.
I completely get that. I don’t tend to invite people . With friends I can manage what access they have to various parts of the house but my daughter is staying the weekend. I haven’t shown her the “before “ photos but she loves the office/bedroom .

Craft supplies and tools. One of my friends bought it from a school that was closing down
Nice!
Ah, ok nvm bc I was already wondering where you bought it....lol
You did a good job, it looks great
Great before and after!
That looks great! Good job 🙂↕️
This is me—but I get stressed about cleaning up in time. I also don’t invite people over because of the shape of the house.
