We finally have our front room painted! I had to take Elliott out for a few hours because he was very excited about the painters. He is quite a gracious person. Every few minutes he was yelling "Hey guys! You can use my bathroom! Hey guys, you need this fork? Hey guys, come see my cool room!" So we got out and went strawberry picking at Hilgers. Our neighbor Emma tagged along and we really enjoyed ourselves. Finding clusters of bright red berries beneath the green plants is so exciting not matter how old I get.
The paint looks great and soon we will have a library and my precious books will be back out.
Speaking of "my precious," my birthday was last week and all I wanted was to watch the 'Lord of the Rings' trilogy. We started the movies around 9pm 3 nights in a row. E was asleep on the couch 15 minutes into it and I didn't think he would remember any of it. So last night he picked up a necklace of mine that looks like a ring on a chain and started running. I caught him and he argued that he needed it "to throw it in the mountain so the ugly guy doesn't get it." I'm thinking about growing his hair out and teaching him archery.
