A day with my daughter

My daughter gave me a coffee in bed this morning which was so nice. A short while later I was chatting on the internet to a friend when she decided it was time for us to get on with some of the chores she had on her to-do list.

As I came out of the shower, I realised she had already started to put up a new bed for her son. The bed had a very tall foot board that looked completely out of place in his bedroom. L decided to cut the excess off the foot board. She took the board off into the garden and started to saw the foot board down. I held the board so she could do the job more easily. We then put the bed up and it looks good.

Then L set to in the dining area to empty some large boxes that were taking up a goodly space. We put a lot of bits out in the crooked shed, and all the board games in the top of B's cupboard. I then put the spinning wheel in the corner of the dining area where it looks really nice. A vcuum round and floor wash completed that part of the list.

My daughter is lovely and I think she needed to get these jobs completed before the baby is born so she didn't have to worry about them after. Plus clearing out the dining room means there is plenty of room for the pram in there.

Oh the joy of moving into a new home and preparing for a new addition to the family.
