When I grow up...

...I want my closet to be as organized as Aliza's.
The other night, she took everything out and folded it and organized it. She was very proud of herself, as well she should be!

Here are her examples:
Parker's closet looks like a bomb went off in it.
Tyler insists that he knows where everything is in his...
And Maris and I are waiting for Real Simple to call us and tell us that our closet won the most unorganized closet award.
I fully admit that I regularly lose things in mine. In fact, sometimes I feel like I have new clothes simply because I haven't seen them for so long.
So I totally can't believe that I let you into my closet, but there it is. I am not perfect after all. Hmmm.

Glad I'm not the only one! I finally cleaned mine out about a month ago and it's already looking pretty sad. I told John next time it's his turn...yeah right!

"I am one of [Jesus Christ's] witnesses, and in a coming day I shall feel the nail marks in his hands and in his feet and shall wet his feet with my tears. But I shall not know any better then than I know now that he is God's Almighty Son, that he is our Savior and Redeemer, and that salvation comes in and through his atoning blood and in no other way."--Bruce R. McConkie, "The Purifying Power of Gethsemane"

"...we must be careful, as we seek to become more and more godlike, that we do not become discouraged and lose hope. Becoming Christlike is a lifetime pursuit and very often involves growth and change that is slow, almost imperceptible. The scriptures record remarkable accounts of men whose lives changed dramatically, in an instant... But we must be cautious as we discuss these remarkable examples. Though they are real and powerful, they are the exception more than the rule. For every Paul, for every Enos, and for every King Lamoni, there are hundreds and thousands of people who find the process of repentance much more subtle, much more imperceptible. Day by day they move closer to the Lord, little realizing they are building a godlike life. They live quiet lives of goodness, service, and commitment. They are like the Lamanites, who the Lord said "were baptized with fire and with the Holy Ghost, and theyknew it not." (3 Ne. 9:20; italics added.)"--Ezra Taft Benson, "A Mighty Changeof Heart"
