More on Nicholas' room

I have finally completed the painting of Nicholas’ room and will get started on the assembling of the furniture this coming week. I must say it is a nice feeling getting the room ready even though I still insist that I am doing the painting and stuff for Nikki and not Nicholas. See, my take is this: Nicholas couldn’t care less about the color of the room and its theme. So aside from a crib, the entire room is really for Mommy.

And Daddy. I find myself secretly glancing back from time to time with a lingering stare at the room whenever I walk past it. Not only am I admiring my handy work but also just pausing long enough to process the significance of the room. What it represents. Its symbolism. Pretty soon there will a baby in there hollering for attention!

I find it funny that we are taking the time to meticulously put the room together perfectly. I doubt we will be able to keep it like that once he gets here though.
