Painting

While Dan was away, the boys and I painted the master bedroom. Someone asked how I could do it with the boys. Well, they do it with me. They only stuck around for 30 minutes at a time. Ryan had the most fun. He liked being on the ladder.
I picked the color from the painting shown. It is a fountain in Rome; it was around the corner from my apartment. I wish I could have a recording of the water gushing night and day and the ebb and flow of the tourists throughout the day. It was prettiest just after dawn, when no one was there and you could get as close as you wanted.

Wow! What a beautiful color! You're such a fun mom. I think your kids are so low stress and helpful because their mother is the same way! Great job to everyone!
