The boys' room is a horrible mess. The "Keep Out" sign on the door serves as a warning of danger to potential visitors as much as a way for the boys to protect their privacy.
But I will tolerate this mess no more! I want the boys to have a nice room; one that is organised and looks like the kids rooms in magazines. And so I have spent my break from work making this happen. It's not finished and I go back to work tomorrow but we've made SO much progress. Mainly due to Neil – the pedal steel player in Guy's band and all-round-handy-with-the-tools kind of bloke.
