Top 2 To Do:
1) Just declutter or organize wherever I feel like, it's a break day.
2) Complete crocheting the dog for my little girl. - I did not manage to complete it yesterday.
3 Amazing things that happened yesterday:
1) The living room and dining room look much organized now.
2) I got my payment from Microworkers, which is over $30. It's my target for a month working online, so I should really take a good rest now.
3) Playing with my baby on the bed, while my elder kids helping the dad to wrap the gifts. As my baby was disturbing and "destroying", hence I had to carry him away, and we were having fun having one-on-one date. He is really adorable and full of cute ideas!
I haven't finish decluttering and organizing yet, well, I never thought I could finish this huge project in short period too, but at least I have got many areas covered, and I will need to spend time touching up here and there and take care of those junk drawers. While I was decluttering, I did not manage to stay calm especially when I saw my kids contributing to the messes. It's time for me to take a break, be relaxed, and be a nice mom too. Clean home is not as important as happy kids!

@kaka135 the time limit came up as an idea from the Buddhist practice of soji.
My oldest just turned 7, 5, and almost 19 months. I just did a mix of the wardolf approach (I thought I learnt from you on bubbles) to life/ fit my family. keep it fun and let cleaning be a game.
Here is an out dated example , but I still follow this in general!
sure there are times its a pain, but most of the time its really not an issue on kids doing what I'd like them too.
