I broke down and bought a Swiffer Sweeper Vac. So many people say it’s wonderful but I have resisted spending money when I can just use a broom. A good old fashioned broom. But my kids drive me crazy with their crumbs and I just don’t sweep enough, so I thought I’d give this a try. It works well, and my unexpected surprise is that the kids love it too! Eve vacuumed the floor after snack and after dinner today. We started talking about chores again (more on that soon!) and she asked if this could be one of her chores. A-OK!

Here is a totally unrelated video. They bicker a ton lately so I love catching them in sweet cooperative moods. We had a really nice afternoon today. I love when things go smoothly.
