What have we been up to lately?
A whole LOT of sprucing up...that is what!
Our townhouse is set to go on the market this week and we have spent the past month putting a lot of extra love in to it to get it ready. It has been a lot of work, but hopefully, it will all pay off soon. We pray that God will send another person, couple, or family in our direction that our home will be completely perfect for. Please say a prayer for us. We have never sold a home before, so this is unchartered territory. We are excited and feel like we have done our very best to prepare it for its next owner.
Of course, we had a little help getting everything done. Last weekend was dedicated to painting the downstairs bedroom, closet, and bathroom. The boys were very eager to help. I was very nervous to let them near the paint. But they both proved to be good little worker bees.
Impressively good, actually.
We set them up in the closet. It was surprisingly much less stressful than I anticipated and after about a half hour, they had the painting bug out of their system and went on to play elsewhere, feeling very included and accomplished.
It was questionable whether Seth got more paint on the wall or on himself, but in the end, there was no paint on the carpet, the closet wall was covered, and there were no tears. From any of us.
A success in my book!
