After 4 children, 2 dogs and 10 years of wear and tear, I believe that my carpet may now be a living being in its own right.
First you have that lovely new baby sick, nice!
Then you have the accidents when you are changing nappies, and the baby boys decide to wee like a little fountain.
Next we have the nappy off time, when they decide to wee ( or even poo everywhere)
Onto the general sickness and diarrhoea bugs they all get at times, and its compulsory that they will never quite make it to the toilet.
Then we have the muddy or wet feet that they drag in from the garden or outdoors.
Of course they also spill food and drink of various kinds all over the place.
Add to that the toddler phase of drawing on everything, so you end up with a nice array of marks throughout the house.
It does not help that the dogs run in after digging in the mud, and will not learn to wipe their feet on the door mat.
We also had a fair amount of wee accidents from the dogs while they were adapting to living in a house.
So in conclusion I think its safe to say that our carpet has now offical achieved the scientific classification of :- GROSS.
