They are now 15 and 17 years. I have all their school work and other stuff like wedding presents that we don't use. i even have some clothes from over 20 years ago. I've been married 22 years in August. My kids are embarrassed to have friends over. I also don't like having people see the mess. Every thing has sentimental value to me, yet it's overtaking my house. My spare bedroom has a small path for my husband to get to his closet. I can hardly get to my bed in my own bedroom because of boxes. My garage is full of boxes and my back porch is, also. I quit working 3 years ago to clean the house, yet it hasn't happened. I don't know where to start. I've been to 4 therapists, including a psycologist and a social worker, and 2 psyciatrists who have given me medicine. Nothing helps. I'm at the point where I need to do something. My son will be graduating high school next year and I'd like his last year at home to be normal. Please help me with any suggestions. I would truly appreciate it. Thanks so much. Pam I have all my children’s clothes from when they were babies. They are now 15 and 17 years.

This was excellent! Thanks so much for sharing your thoughts. Such important reasons for keeping a "memorial"...hmmm, the Lord has given us "memorials" in the scriptures...okay, time to read and study! :-) My turn, Renae! This was excellent!
