This weekend, we said goodbye to a member of our home... and I couldn't be happier about it! We have a room off of our kitchen, and when we built our home, we envisioned it as a homework room for the kids. (Think posh Pottery Barn catalogue!) We thought that yellow paint would fit the kid theme... however, we just didn't have the funds to make our imagination a reality. So the 'homework room' really just became a room full of random office stuff and junk... and painted yellow! To me, the yellow walls just added to the confusion. Over time, my hatred for the room grew from a disliking to a full blown loathing hatred. Every time, the door to the room was left open, I cringed. When friends visited, I apologized. Well, my turmoil came to an end last Saturday. With the first swipe of paint, I immediately felt better. It was extremely difficult painting with four children bumping in to us every few seconds and begging to help the entire time, but it was well worth it. I am so thankful for my extremely hard working, fast working, and talented husband who knows how to do everything! He has given me the best early Mother's Day present ever! Good-bye yellow paint. Rest in peace. I shall not miss you.
