New Beds Courtesy of my Children

After the breakfast, Mike, Matt and I visited Rooms to Go on East Independence, and ordered 6 twin bunks, and decent mattresses.

There was a little confusion at first because, they thought I was talking about six bunk bed sets for a total of 12 mattresses - it was a relief to get that bill cut down to $4400 once we cleared the confusion and reduced it to 6 mattresses.



I'm pretty sure this is what we got.  Just the bed mind you, but I like the shelving at the head.

This all came out of Mike's pocket, but I'm hoping that Kimberley and Stephen will share the burden equally and pay Mike back for their shares.

The aim is that we have four twins for the male berthing room to take care of Michael, Stephen, Matthew and Brett.  These are finished in black, and come with bookshelves in the head of the bed.  It should accommodate personal items well.

There is also a second twin set for Kimberley and Sarah, for the smaller guest room. Same design, just finished in Cherry.  I hear that Sarah will be visiting for Columbus Day and my birthday on the 14th.  Apparently the Daughters of Charity will be funding the travel from St. Louis, MO to Charlotte NC.

Delivery of the beds is expected Tuesday, so we've got Sarah's trip covered already.

Thanks be to God for all his wonderful gifts!
I am full of joy.

Ad Jesum Per Mariam, Eric
