Space Deficient, and (trying to be) proud of it

This is what happens when I ask the girls to play in their room only.
I don't ask them to stay in their room very often. It's almost a form of punishment, as their room is smaller than some closets.

Lately, I been feeling more than a little confined by our space and lack thereof. Since we don't see a move in our not-too-distant future (although we'd love one), I have decided to see our space as a blessing rather than a curse.

Here are some reasons our small space is great:

• Our home is easier/faster to clean up
  
• We don't collect much junk
  
• We can hear our kids if (when) they wake up at night
  
• We have what we need and not much more
  
• I can stand in one place in my kitchen and access almost every drawer and cupboard
  
• We always know where the girls are
• When the day comes that we move, it won't take too much effort

If you can think of any other reasons for us to love our small space, please let us know so we can feel even better about living in less than 1,000 square feet with a family of five.
