“I am resolved to be a good mother to my children, to pray for them, to set them good examples, to give them good advice, to be careful both of their souls and bodies, to watch over their tender minds; to carefully root out the first appearing and buddings of vice, and to instill piety, virtue and true religion into them.“

The Girls Bathroom



In the afternoon yesterday, Emily painted their bathroom.  This is a small room in the bathroom that has the shower and toilet in it.  It get no natural light at all. The color is the same as we used in the living room - a Williamsburg color called "Palace Chambers Yellow." 

This photo does not show the color in it's right tone.  This is taken with a light overhead and no flash...and looks a tad green.  It is not.  It is warm and lovely, especially with the white ceiling and white trim.

What fun to have another painter in the house!  This will relieve me of sole paintership and what a good skill for her to have for her future!  A family can save a lot of money by being able to do these kinds of skills themselves!

It feels so good to accomplish a project like this. Good for Emma.
Chelsea is resisting my help in her room so far. She says she'll ask for help when she is desperate. lol

A yellow bathroom sounds delightful. I need to repaint ours to be a bit more cheery soon. :)
