It is a New Year, which around our house means cleaning up, going through the house and donating stuff to Goodwill. Straightening things around the house and declaring your resolution to be better organized and productive and get more things done and lose 10 pounds, although the last few years it has escalated to 20 pounds.
Anyway, I was going through the bathroom drawers and figuring that I didn't need three toothbrushes and discovering that I should not buy another razor until June or until I use all the ones that I bought in the giant bag from Costco, whichever takes longer, when I came across my stash of children's teeth. The first tooth I pulled was so small and the sentimental side of me said I should keep it and scrapbook it or save it some how so i could always remember how small my children were. But now, I have 9 or 10 or 12 teeth wrapped in Kleenex in my bathroom drawer. They are probably some bio-hazard, but they are my children's teeth and throwing them in the garbage just does not feel right. I feel like I am throwing a part of my children away. Yet, I know that people my throw the teeth away, it only makes sense.
So, for now, they still sit in my drawer, until the end of the month. Then, I will take the big step forward, I think, if I am ready.
