moving furniture

So, the other day Mr. M came down and asked if he could get rid of some things in his room and move things around so they would have more room to play in there. I told him that sounded like a great idea, but that I would not be able to help him move furniture, and he should check with his brothers to make sure that what he was doing was fine with him. A little while later I went upstairs to find the landing filled with stuff from the boys' room, including a book shelf!

Later I looked in to find all of their clothes all over, dresser drawers on the floor, and Mr. M attempting to move the dresser (with some help from Mr. R). "Um, did you measure that spot to make sure it would fit?" the reply was "Yes!" with a nervous look at the space they were thinking of using.... a little while later one of them came in to ask to use a measuring tape.

They spent most of the day in there, and I was impressed with the thought they gave to this project and the initiative Mr. M took in doing this project by himself (mostly). I'm proud of them for taking responsibility for their room, and how it functions.
