This Old House


Ten years ago today, Amy and I closed on our house. Sadly, much of our house remains in a temporary state. This month brought two big moves towards a more permanent arrangement: we carpeted Jada's third floor bedroom (she sleeps in a first floor room now) and bought her a bed (she sleeps on a mattress on the floor now). Soon enough, this old house of ours will actually feel like everything's in the right place. And soon enough, the kids will be out of the house and off to college. Boy, time flies.

J's sleeping on a mattress on the floor? Reminds me of her dad back in, well, all the way through high school, no? He turned out pretty good! Bed frames clearly are over-rated.

Mike - Actually, her dad spent much of his high school years sleeping on the floor, so sans even mattress. No conclusion as to whether this contributed to his future hard-headedness. :)
