Several years ago I read an article that suggested giving junk mail to your children to play with. At the time this one was just a baby, and it was nice to give her something to tear up that I didn't worry about. Still to this day, it is her treasure. Whenever there is a large pile of junk mail she gets so excited! "Oooh," she says, "Can I keep this one?" "Do you need that?"....
On this particular day I spent hours cleaning up and organizing the office, filling a garbage can in the process. She was quietly playing behind me while I paid bills. When I turned around, she had completely surrounded herself in everything that I had thrown away and exclaimed,
"Mom, it's my lucky day!"
