Clean, clean, clean

We have a real estate agent coming to look at our house on Monday to help us with pricing, etc, so it will be ready to go on the market at the end of the month. We've been really busy getting it ready to be seen. Even Claire was busy stacking her books into little piles yesterday. She told us she was "organizing".

It's crazy to think that our house is going to have to be clean and organized enough that I won't be terribly embarrassed for someone to drop in with little notice and poke around here. The house has to look nice enough for them to a)open all of my closets, and b)actually want to live here. We have the front yard looking good; we're still tackling the inside.

It makes me a little sad to think that we're going to move soon. We brought both of our girls home from the hospital here, we've made good friends, and this has been our home for almost 4 years. We'll miss it.
