YOU COULD CONSIDER THIS AN INTERVENTION
We have come to an undeniable conclusion that our suspicions about Rose are true. She is a PACK RAT. I mean - Wikipedia even has her pegged.
We came to this conclusion as we packed up her room to move to the new house. I truly stood back in amazement. How does one small person accumulate that much crap in one small space??? I blame myself totally for allowing her disorder to get to this point. I should have bitten the bullet and cleaned out her toys/room/closet a long long long time ago. She has kept EVERY. SINGLE. THING. she has ever gotten.... the tops to chap stick, Sonic Wacky Pack prizes, rings from the Mexican restaurant toy machine, random puzzle pieces, pennies, ribbon, the tip of a broken crayon, dried up play doh, a bird feather, an empty Kleenex box, DVD cases with no DVDs to be found, and an empty Pezz Candy thing-a-ma-jig - ya know? because we like to FEED THE ANTS at our house! OMG .... you name it - it was in her room. She strategically placed each toy inside of another toy (shes a clean closet hoarder in other words). So all of her junk was compactly placed into something small and usually zipped up, then placed into something a little larger - and usually zipped again, then placed into something like a birthday sack and then shoved into a hidden place behind something bigger. Yes we clean our house. Yes Rose's room is picked up and toys put away on a daily basis. She's just magical I guess. I have no explanation as to where all this crap came from. Really.

| This may just seem like books to most people - but here is the kicker - we had already boxed up her bookshelf. These are the books that appeared as we were cleaning up other parts of her bedroom. Amazing. |

| WOW. just WOW. |
