New year
I guess I'm anxious. Cleaned both girls' bedrooms and added some storage to the princess suite. 6 has the smaller room. Her bedroom is next door to a playroom. In order to make it feel more spacious, we cut an arched walk through between the two rooms last year. She has been asking for the playroom to be painted (like spring) since last year. So tonight we painted. The girls are getting pretty handy with a roller and brush! The playroom loft is now green ( like a tree fort), the rest of the walls are blue - darker at the ceiling, lighter towards the bottom, we have clouds in the sku and light green grass at the bottom of the walls. 6 designed a sun she wants painted on the ceiling around the light fixture, and we found some left over wallpaper of a tree. After we get some of the storeage pieces back in, we can paint the flowers, trees and bugs on the walls.
Strange - I would never think of painting a picture, but have absolutely no hesitation painting on walls!

If I could speak in any
language in heaven or
on earth but didn't love
others, I would only be
making meaningless noise
like a loud gong or a
clanging cymbal. If I
had the gift of prophecy,
and if I knew all the
mysteries of the future
and knew everything
about everything, but
didn't love others, what
good would I be? And
if I had the gift of faith
so that I could speak
to a mountain and make
it move, without love
I would be no good to
anybody. If I gave
everything I have to
the poor and even
sacrificed my body,
I could boast about it;
but if I didn't love others,
I would be of no value
whatsoever. Love is
patient and kind. Love
is not jealous or boastful
or proud or rude. Love
does not demand its
own way. Love is not
irritable, and it keeps
no record of when it
has been wronged.
It is never glad about
injustice but rejoices
whenever the truth
wins out. Love never
gives up, never loses
faith, is always hopeful,
and endures through
every circumstance.
May You Always
Experience This
Kind Of Love,
Dr. Howdy

new years are so filled with promise, eh?
I just read about your grandpa--I'm so sorry! I know how hard it is to cope with all of that--with the relatives, with the illness itself, with your own kids, your own feelings. Sending you a big hug, and hoping the news is better than it was. How's everyone doing?
