DGD - Day 4

Today, I am grateful for...LESS MESS!  Those of you who know me well are probably shocked by the fact that I enjoy things being, well, not messy.  Specifically, the less mess I'm talking about is in Luke's room.  Since he's started kindergarten, he brings home so many papers that I believe kindergarten might possibly be the demise of all the woodlands around the world.  Seriously!  And he wants to keep only really important stuff everything.  He loves to draw and write, color, and play with play-doh, but he has only had a small table to work on.  And the small table had no working area, because it has been buried in papers, among other random little boy things.  Finally growing weary of the pit of papers, Brandon and I began having the discussion a few days ago that it was time for a desk.  I came home Tuesday to find that Brandon had spent all day re-painting an old computer desk we had in the garage for Luke's room.  We now have shelves to put things on & all the junk truly gifted & special work he brings home does not all collect on the working surface.  Yay!  Will it stay as neat as it is right now?  I think not, but I know that it will be less mess than before & for that ---- I am grateful!

Back in the good old days when this little table was plenty big.

So proud of his new "grown-up" space (and a chair he can spin around in).

Hard at work.

He looks about Cooper's age at the table... so cute! And his desk is impressive. I wish I had a chair like that!
