Today, I Will…
I turned the knob and opened the door, but it refused to go any further. I pushed harder and heard something crack with a snap. All the drawers were open and things were spilling out of them. I couldn’t walk without stepping on clothes, charging cables, cans, shoes… As I made my way around the workout gear, I toppled the overflowing wastebasket.
When will I learn, I sighed!
I could close the door and keep out.
But No… Today, I will not wait for mom to clean up. After all, this is my circus and these are my monkeys! #FeelingDetermined

My oldest decided he wanted to keep one of the pups from the last litter our dog had, so sometimes I will let “Curly” into his room, just so DS can see the benefits of having a more tidy room. (In case you ask, it hasn’t worked so far, but I get a little glee each time I do this.) :p

Naught you!! 😀
August 17, 2015 2:46 am|
Haha…good one! I’m tempted to ask, whose room is this? Did it clean up without the mom having to interfere? 😉

Oh, this is not our home!! A pic from Pixabay 😉
Room cleaned up by kids… every mom would like that very much! But… SIGH!!

Good one, Shilpa. So familiar with this, as the mom of an 11-year old! He sorts it out though!
August 20, 2015 11:40 am|
You are truly blessed, Esha 🙂
August 17, 2015 1:03 pm|
🙂 Did the determination worked? As always, your drabble is perfect, Shilpa. 🙂
August 20, 2015 11:41 am|

Oh wow! How cute is that! And where is that picture from? Tell me more 🙂 Loved your response to the prompt and I also notice the change on the blog front, the colors and layout. Looks good! 🙂

Thanks Parul, glad you liked this attempt!
Was facing some issues with template so temporarily reverted to another one! 🙂

I’ve been staring at that picture for a while and trying to figure what belongs to who! Loved your post, Shilpa!
August 20, 2015 11:43 am|
LOL 😀 Sorry to disappoint you, but that’s not from our home 😛
Thanks, Corinne, glad you liked this take on the prompt! A great prompt, BTW. 🙂

I’m not disappointed, Shilpa – just relieved! 😉 I’ll admit I was a bit shocked – it didn’t seem like you! 🙂
August 17, 2015 8:41 pm|
Hahahahahha.. I just needed the motivation to start decluttering my cupboard! 😀
August 20, 2015 11:44 am|
Hope your mom is happy to see an organised cupboard and room too 😀
August 20, 2015 1:58 am|
I wish…I really wish…my son does it 😛
August 20, 2015 11:45 am|
He will.. he will. He is still a baby, L. Give him some more time 🙂
August 20, 2015 9:34 am|
Now that looks like my bro’s room!
August 20, 2015 11:45 am|
Wow! 😀
August 20, 2015 2:48 pm|

I think that’s a fantasy most parents have 😉
