Mary Poppins small space solutions


Just like Mary Poppins purse/handbag, is this box. In this picture Lathan is standing on two five gallon water bottles, my DeWalt orbital hand sander, four broken crayons, one old wellington rain boot (size six) and an old Norman Rockwell coffee mug that Beth got at a garage sale. (The handle broke off and is in there too. Somewhere.) They don't make boxes like they used to. This picture also shows a good view of our 450 sq ft. apt. that we live in currently. It's... how do I put it.........umm..... cozy. Especially with Lathan.

They dont make boxes like they used to! You better hang on to that one. Id like to crawl down into it and have a look around sometime, maybe it goes deeper than anyone knows. Good job Lathan! Go Lathan!

Please tell that beautiful boy to stop growing until his Aunt Keri can see him again! He's turning into a little boy - where's baby Lathan?! And I can only imagine just how cozy it must be in there:) I greatly admire your stick-with-it-ness in being frugal.

Thanks Nate and Ker. He sure is a blessing. I remember someone saying one time. "Kids will bring you the most joy and the most pain. I have experienced nothing but joy thus far in our journey. Frustration, sure, but you can tell he tries so hard to please you. It's great.
