I think it's official to say we have a "tween" now. First it was demanding bangs at a haircut this summer. Then it was wanting to get the new Selena Gomez CD. Now, it is upgrading the room.
Hannah has the privilege of having the official master bedroom in our apartment. Only because it was the only fully furnished room, and we already had our bedroom furniture. It has A LOT of built-ins that have been a life saver for us. But when it came to painting rooms when we moved in, we stuck with white since there were so many tricky places to paint. Hannah's room also doubles as the guest room whenever we have visitors, so up to this point, it has been a little thrown together.
One of our goals in returning was to make her room a little more "her." So last week Dad painted a wall purple, and we applied some age-appropriate decor to spice it up a little. It turned out so cute!
Hannah loves it (LOVES IT), and it has so far inspired her to keep it a little more picked-up. :) As far as we know, we're in Bologna for a while. So we're glad Hannah has a room she loves now. And one that fits the growing young lady she's becoming.
Lots going on in the coming weeks, as we prepare for the return of students at the beginning of February. God has provided a long-term team of seven for us to work with, and we are so anxious to see how He is going to work over the next few months. Thanks for all your continued prayers and words of encouragement!
