Lesson one

First, you clear a path.

Now, mind you, I'm not talking about some trail through the woods. I'm talking about a footprint sized slice of bare floor, winding through the Andes.

As you walk through this jungle called home, be careful for falling items. As you shove things to one side, just take care not to stack them so high that they can fall on a small child.

If you know that there are breakables, spillables, and open food (and really, if there isn't, why are you reading this??) just take care not to plow into anything that will spill, break, or breed maggots once it's burined.

Believe me, I have full confidence in you. Because you are the woman who can find that needle (bra, diaper, credit card) in a haystack.

Rest assured, there is no one better suited for plowing this path,than yourself.
