I think I'll get a larger tub for the bigger pieces just so I can keep them seperate. My daughter has used all empty tubs around her to store her stuff while she's on deployment so naturally Mom has to go buy more. Our daughter joining the Navy has cost us a fortune! ;-)
Generally speaking, if one of my kids "borrows" something, I may as well not hold my breath waiting to get it back.
