Mung Beans

I was having one of those days were I was slow moving. The house work was calling but the motivation was not there. I decided to give it my best for a few minutes. Sometimes 20 minutes can make a big difference .... that is without mung beans. I decided to move the buckets so the house didn't look cluttered. Unfortunately, I picked up a 25lb bag of mung beans that split down both sides. Not just a little hole I mean the whole thing! Boy was I unhappy about that. Joy sweetly tried to help me pick up the beans and put them in a container. Then she got the broom with Elijah and they started sweeping. Elijah was so excited about what we picked up in the dust pan he dropped the whole thing on the floor again! My dd didn't say a word and just reswept. Sometimes you can just be thankful that they try so hard when you need it. Sometimes she is so messy but made up for it. Now if you can guess all of the places 25lb of mung beans can hide you know we just started to clean them up! I have a feeling they will haunt us for a long time. As far as the house cleaning... it didn't happen just mung beans!
