it's that time again. it fills me with glee. i empty/sort/organize the kids clothes boxes. they each have their own, which i fill with thrift, clearance and gifted items as the days go by. or as the sibling before outgrows! when the weather changes we get them out and have a gigantic try on mess.
then i'm happy to make a list! they pick their favorite font, and we fill in the blanks. it sounds a little retentive but when i'm at the thrift and i can't remember who needs shorts or what color they already have (i hate having 4 pairs of olive green shorts) with 5 little wardrobes to keep track of, it's a big time and money saver for me. plus, i enjoy it. and since i'm the boss, i celebrate this little ritual that makes me happy.
