Decorating update...

I have been painting since Saturday. I have been painting the same rooms since Saturday, and this morning I finally finished. Now, granted it was a big job with alot of cutting in, but it has never taken me 4 days to finish painting anything. Today, I will go forth and search for window coverings. I may actually get these areas finished before the beginning of next week. Then I can finally open my Sonlight boxes, that I have been faithfully leaving alone until I was finished with these rooms.

*************************************************

Tuesday, I sent Princess out to some storage cabinets in the garage to retrieve a plastic cup for my use in painting. While she was looking for the cup, she found some party hats from past birthday parties.
"Momma, can I have this hat to play with?"
"Yes."
"Can I get one for Professor and Warrior?"
"Yes."
"Can we play with the other party stuff?"
To this I started to say "No." but for what else was I going to use it? So, they retrieved the bag from the cabinet and delved into the treasures therein. About 2 minutes later they had set up their very own birthday party with, a table cloth, Princess's dishes, party guests (stuffed animals) in hats and masks, and even a few decorations. They then spent the rest of the morning playing party games.

This morning I found one of the guests in my closet who obviously won at Hide-n-Seek. I wish I could have found my camera in time to take a picture, but as with all of childhood you have to be fast to catch the moments because they dissipate all too quickly.
