When we were growing up, my sister and I would take the baby out of the
manger and put it in weird positions. Sometimes he rode the mule, sometimes he hung
up at the top with the angel.

Something I haven't seen discussed on this list before is whether or
not anyone has ever considered hiring someone to help with
housework? You can find people to clean for 5-10 dollars an hour.
I've been toying with the idea...if someone came once or twice a week
for a few hours at a time...

We have someone who comes every two weeks to clean, and it makes us a very
happy family. We are not particularly neat people, so every two weeks we need to
straighten up and put stuff away so that Rose can come in and clean. She does
floors, dusting, and all kinds of other stuff that we never get around to.
When we come back the house looks and smells clean and nice. For us it's
definitely worth it.
