Randomness

A pair of wet, dirty socks in the front yard.
A jumprope on the counter.
A hair rubberband in the dog's water dish.
Nerf darts everywhere.
A ball made of tin foil in the hallway.

These are the types of things we deal with in my household ALL the time. I am always amazed at the random things I find lying around. It's like the treasure that I find in the laundry. I keep all the strange little things I find in the kids' pockets in a small container in the laundry room. (Of course, I keep the money for myself. It is the payoff for having to deal with their smelly clothes.) Some day, when they are older, I will show them all the cool, peculiar things that they carried around with them. It is my version of a scrapbook.
