The other day Hannah Beth and I were watching one of those TV shows where a group of people come into someone's house and help them get rid of their enormous clutter and then they sell a bunch of their stuff in a garage sale and make their house look great. Hannah Beth thought it would be great if they came to our house. I thought it would be tragic if my house got so bad that someone like that had to come in! I wouldn't mind the room makeover, though! Then Hannnah Beth started telling me some rules that she thinks we should follow in our house. Then she went right into what shethought Daddy should make (which amazingly sound an awful lot like what we've read in a Berenstein Bears book that we have called "The Messy Room"!)
Rules for the Davis House (According to Hannah Beth)
1. If you get something out, then you need to put it away when you are done.
2. Don’t go outside without asking an adult.
3. After you put your plate away you should pick up anything off the ground that you might have dropped while you were eating.
4. Put your shoes away after you come inside.
5. After you sit on the couch fix the pillows.
6. If you pop a balloon you have to put all the pieces of it in the trash.
7. Don’t turn on the TV without asking.
8. No TV until the afternoon.
9. Don’t stand on the carpet when your feet are dirty.
10. Don’t go in the pool without asking a parent.
What Daddy should make (according to Hannah Beth):
1. A big storage closet and we could make boxes out of cardboard and we could paint or color them and we could put some toys in them.
2. Toy boxes for upstairs.
3. Make a peg board to hang our coats on.

I knew there would be a peg board for hanging your things. =) We have read that book many times.
Maybe she will have a future in organizing and making the rules. Like a teacher or a mom.
