That's The Kind Of Cleaning I Like

Today our living room was the scene for an elaborate game that involved unfolding lots of maps and placing them into various piles. I'm not sure what rules the game followed or even what the point was but it kept a four year old busy for 45 minutes so it must've been pretty exciting. After she got bored, I got the job of playing the "Picker Upper" because folding maps isn't always easy and I'd prefer that they stay in one piece. I'm such a sucker for maps. I enjoyed looking at them while folding as much as she enjoyed her fancy game. There are so many places I want to go and so many things to see. And that was just the 17 US maps plus one for the Caribbean. Think of how restless I would be feeling if she had found the others...
