Please help me to figure out the logic for this problem

Hello,
i am on 2.6.13-1.1526_FC4smp
i have directory named /home , and in there i have directory 2009_10_10
and two files : 2009_10_10.log and 2009_10_11.log
How to write shell script which will delete only file/s that don't have his/their 'parent' directory, so in this case , only 2009_10_11.log would be deleted ?
Smilie
