Not me...my mom. Now, my mom, has the neatest, tidiest, minimalistic, uncluttered house I know of, but she still declutters, all the time. I guess that's the reason her house is always so neat and tidy. The last time she decluttered she gave me some momentos of when I was just a little girl. These momentos are of my First Communion, the announcement, gloves and veil, from May 25, 1969 and my mom's Holy Gospel which I scribbled on and tore pages from when I was maybe three.
I'm not nearly as tidy as my mom but I wish I had kept more of my own children's momentos but sadly I took decluttering too far and rid myself of some items that I dearly wish I kept.
How about you? Do you keep your little treasures?

What wonderful mementos. I declutter all the time too. I kept a few of the kid's items and when they left home I gave them to them. I'm not one for hanging on to things though.
btw - we hope to have moved by Sept. and we are heading towards your province. I'll let you know what we decide. Hugs
Am just starting to get back on track. I was 11 post behind.Wow You have been busy girl.I have to say I'm a keeper.My children's book and toys are still in the attic.A trip up there can sometimes take hours.Oh those biscottis look scumptuous.I can just imagine dipping them in my coffee now.
