I used to watch this show called "Hoarders." It's a show about people obsessed with collecting things or holding on to things etc…. but to the extreme.
There are some things I like to hoard… like pictures, special items from the kids (jerseys, school papers, etc…).
But… on the flip side I love to get rid of stuff. I have been known on more than one occasion to take big, black garbage bags to the playroom closet just because I can't stand the clutter anymore. Just this week I tossed dirty old clothes, donated some and sold some.
But - some things are worth keeping.
This cute little outfit that Hadley wore on St. Patrick's Day to preschool used to be Riley's (when she was three.) And I do believe someone passed it along to us. So who knows how old it is but it's in good shape and I found it in a bin of riley's old clothes I had stashed away in the attic.
And I searched through months and months of pics and found Riley in the outfit as well. I don't have one of her looking up or at the camera but we were at Discovery Place with friends - she was too busy to look at me.
And while I was searching for that darn picture of Riley in the green outfit I ran across these oldies but goodies. Riley was so incredibly scared of the ocean the summer she was three. I have a feeling my sweet Hizzy won't be scared.
Until next time...
