While Timmy was in class I decided to orchestrate a mini surprise. His bedroom, although not terribly messy, was not organized. He has been living in a state of unpacked but not settled since we moved. For Christmas he received lights that have not been hung, his posters were still not on the walls and the furniture was not in its optimal location. With his classroom door closed I was able to enter his bedroom undetected. Three hours later, his Dad and I had completely redesigned and decorated his bedroom.
We did not intend for the project to take three hours, but one task led neatly into another. Even though it was a lot of work, I'm delighted with the results. Timmy's collectibles are all concentrated in a 'museum' corner. He has room for his tumble mat and two distinct reading corners, both highlighted with app controlled color lights. Scott and I were happy with the results- but Timmy was utterly thrilled.
Hamlet spent the night running up and down the stairs, hugging us and thanking us for our efforts. He took pictures to share with Robby and couldn't wait to test it out. Fingers crossed he keeps his new digs clean.
