She Never Let Her Daughters Keep Anything Messy

Persnickety fussbudget never had a mess Raised two daughters – Wilhemina and Tess They both became hoarders by age seventeen No lie, I am not attempting to insult or be mean. Their mother had spent years throwing their treasures away. They hoard everything since they are emancipated and now have a say. If she would have let us keep any of our trinkets for a little while We might not have become so opposite, Tess said with a smile.

I love a huge mess, and so does my twin sister - mother was a minimalist; she never let us keep any clutter.
