Erin had a request for me the last time I visited: she wanted me to get Michael's name in wooden letters, paint them red, and add pictures from the boys' new bunk bed comforters. (I had done Jacob's name when he was born in yellow and added vehicles from his crib comforter.)
I had 7 letters this time so it took me a little longer to finish them. The red didn't cover as nicely as the yellow. The black outlining seemed to take forever. I even goofed up by putting on a couple of things before talking with Erin - oops. The igloo and compass can't be painted over - Sorry... I agree, fewer would have been better!
They are now completed - I must admit they turned out better than I first thought they would - but don't ask Dave how many times I redid some... (that's the perfectionist in me)
"If" Erin has another child, I hope she uses the initials next time -"I.F." - lol
love, your mama
