In the last week we’ve been doing a lot of clearing out of our bedroom to prepare for the redecoration project that we’re planning for this coming weekend.
Considering what I found at the bottom of the drawer, the fact that the majority of the work on this project is our son’s Christmas present to me is particularly fitting.
Translated: “I want to play with you.” This note was slipped under my bedroom door by my boy almost 18 years ago, while I was indulging in that Holy Grail for moms, the Afternoon Nap.
I posted about it a couple of years ago; I thought the note was probably hiding in that drawer where I found it, but I was afraid to check – if it were lost, it would have broken my heart.
So looking forward to this project with our now almost-21-year-old son this weekend. I want to play with him, too.
Aw! That is very sweet! What a wonderful keepsake.

I know! Now I’m trying to figure out how to save it forever – I don’t do scrapbooks, so I’m seriously considering a little mat and frame.

That’s a great idea!

Haven’t started on our bedroom redo except to look for ideas. I have some of those “I have to do this before I can do that” type of things. However, I’m going through a little phase of I don’t care about anything, so nothing is progressing. Thanks for the inspiration.

For the record, this project has been in the planning stages since summer, so that’s why were finally getting into the actual doing. It took me that long. Now I’m so ready to be done I can barely stand to wait one more day!
