When our daughter came into our bedroom today when she arrived from the metropolis where she's staying for her studies, she looked around . Her eyes fell on the green curtain and the beddings. She said she liked the new beddings, which I bought many months ago , which she has just seen for the first time since she was away for the past 6 months. She said was surprised at how cozy the beddings and the curtains made the whole bedroom appeared. I am so happy she liked them . I really chose them with her favorite colors in mind, when I bought them.

That was a very sweet thing for you to do for her. It is probably such a relief to her to be home from her studies for a bit. Six months is a long time.

Actually last October they have a one week break. However she has some Student Council duties, so we understood why she can't go home anymore. I really have in mind to make the room so cozy, because it's where she usually stays to watch TV, surf and sleep. It's a place where her Papa , her and i bonds specially at night when we come home from work. And i am so glad she appreciated it so much!

I know how you must be feeling when you saw her eyes lit up upon seeing her room. It is such a wonderful feeling that we can still make them feel in awe even if our once little kid has now grown up.

I can understand her surprise, because they are not the usual colors for our curtains and for our beddings. It inspires me to make another set of curtain - this time , yellow!

It's good to hear that your daughter appreciate your effort , she's really sweet. It's a great feeling to see our loved ones happy. And it's even greater when they show us the appreciation

Yes jaiho. I was so happy she voiced out her appreciation. Unlike her father who would only smile and i would insist , if it's nice. That's the only time he will say, it's also nice!

I know how you feel! It is important to feel that people like your decorating decisions. My husband and I recently bought a house and I have designed the whole thing just how I want it, so I am always a little nervous when people come over, because I want them to like my ideas!

Correct my friend. Our efforts are worth it when they are appreciated. Imagine sewing the curtains for two days, when i had my vacation because of my operation. It was tiresome but i feel fulfilled specially now that my daughter really like it.
