Yesterday was Jenny's birthday and the only gift she mentioned wanting was a livingroom. She has lived in an apartment in my parents' basement for more than eight years and the room that should be her living/dining room has always been a storeroom, so Valerie spearheaded the project and organized the family. Sam, her kids, and I took Jenny shopping to pick out light fixtures and paint colors and we started early Saturday cleaning out the room, taping, mudding, texturing the ceiling, and even got part of it primed. Everyone in the family helped with donations of time or money or both. This project will go for several more weekends, but it will be such a nice space for her. So happy birthday Jenny! Thanks for all you do for our family.
