Painting

(Jamie)

Painting, is not fun. I can think of a hundred things that I would rather be doing than spending three weeks of my life with a paint brush in my hand. The past three weeks or so have been exactly that, though. The upstairs bedroom (which we are relocating to, the nursery, the upstairs bathroom, and the living room are now all pretty much complete. Even though it was frustrating at times, when we sit back now and look at it all, I feel good thinking about how we have made preparations for home that will no longer be just ours. B---- J------ is coming into home that was pretty much prepared for his arrival. It feels nice to know that my labor (and I probably shouldn't use that would around Amanda) has been not necessarily out of necessity but out of how much I love my wife and my son. Starting a family has been an amazing experience and I'm super excited for him to get here.
