I painted Emily's closet. Her clothes are hanging in Geoff's closet so I had to get it done before he comes home and notices.
Look how clean it is without all her junk (I meant stuff in the nicest way) in there. Her closet is not what she wanted me to paint. She has grown out of her adorable room. We are thinking about moving her out and keeping the bedroom. The main reason we built this house and moved here was because we didn't know where to put Emily. We lived in a four bedroom house and when Emily came along there was no room in the inn. Well maybe there was room in the inn but there was no logical place for Emily to claim in our house. Should we put her with her 16 year old brother or her 14 year old sister? Her 6 and 9 year old brother were already sharing a room and besides that didn't make sense either. So for the first two years of her life she shared a room with Lonny and I or slept in the den. When she was two we moved into this house where she may have been the only two year old with a walk-in closet and bathroom. Now she is almost 12 and she thinks she has grown out of this room. She does have the whole upstairs to herself but not for long. Geoff and Eric will both be back and I doubt they would look kindly on their little sister taking over their room.
So would you want to paint over this? It's either Emily or this room. I'll have to think about it.

Cute room vs. cute kid. Hmmm. Tough choice.
Looks like a charming craft room /woman's office to me and with all that storage and a bathroom you don't have to share! It's a no-brainer!
Maybe there's a place for her in the garage?...how about that special room you have out there? Just tell her it's safety first!
