4 Comments Catching Up & Clearing Out
Yesterday morning another one of Michael’s former TSS’s came for a visit. We had a nice time sharing what we have been up to and talking/playing with Michael.
Her daughter’s family has recently moved back to Pennsylvania from California, and she mentioned needing to go shopping for warmer clothes for the kids since they don’t really have anything suitable for winter. Well, it turned out that the two boys are 2 and 4, so I was pretty sure I still had clothes in those sizes up in my attic.
When I went up the ladder, I was amazed at how many boxes of stuff were there. They must have multiplied on their own, because I certainly don’t remember putting that much up there myself! I was also shocked by how many clothes I still had, even though I have given quite a bit to other friends in the past. I started thinking about pulling it all out and getting rid of it, but I know I don’t really want to lug it all to a donation center.
So I brought down the 2T and 4T clothes that I had and we went through it to find the fall/winter items. I actually had a winter coat in each size! My plan for the rest of it is to bring it all down and schedule a couple of mornings where any of the moms from church can come over and take whatever they can use. I’m not sure how long it will take me to actually organize this, but I think it will be a lot of fun!

What a great idea! We have accumulated a ton of stuff over the years too, we’ve given away a lot but we still have a lot. I have found myself holding on to some on the off-chance we end up having another child, but realistically I don’t think that’s going to happen so I’ve been slowly letting go of more baby / toddler stuff

i love giving away things to people i know who need it. it is so much more satisfying than donating to a charity, tho i do do that as well. i’m glad you were able to help this mom.
