That’s Paw-Paw’s Room

Tag: GeneralJosh @ 11:39 pm

We painted Rachel’s new room today. I taped everything off last night, and got started painting about 9:30 this morning. I skipped church to paint - shame on me! I worked all day on it, and with help from Jamie, finally got finished about 9:45 this evening.

At some point today, Rachel came in, and being her always curious self asked: “What are you doing?”. “I’m painting your room”, I replied. This seemed to upset her a little, and she says “That’s not Rachel’s Room! That’s Paw-Paw’s Room!”

My in-laws, “Mimi and Paw-Paw” are frequent guests, and they always stay in this room. It took quite a bit explaining before we got Rachel to understand this would be her new room, but she finally accepted it. Jamie put Rachel in bed tonight because I was still working on the room, and I overheard Rachel saying “I want to sleep in my room!”. She expected to be able to start sleeping in the new room tonight, and I guess she was kinda peeved that she had to sleep in the old room another night… Poor baby!

I think we’re having company next weekend, so we’ll probably wait until after that to finish moving Rachel in. I don’t have a clue what we are going to do with guests after that. The couch sleeps pretty good I guess…
