For Christmas (yes, months ago) I started on a hideout for layla under our stairs. We had built a storage area next to our house to store all of our suitcases and camping gear and such. Houses here have zero storage and we just needed a bit more room since we decided not to move to a larger home. We have such cheap rent here!
Anyway....back to the hideout (= I had wanted a place for Layla to play since she shares a room with Ryan and he naps a lot more than she does these days. A wonderfully crafty friend made these letters for her and I taped them to the wall. We'll find more permanent way to hang them later. Mom and I worked on the curtains for the hideout and that is all ready to go as soon as Tom gets the time and inclination to do some house projects (=. She is really tickled to have her place to be. I let her eat here since it is right near the back door and can be cleaned easily. The tape recorder was a recent purchase and a real gift from God - I had been given a big bag of tapes and books on tape but needed a simple and sturdy player for layla. Trying to buy something like this out here would be impossible....they tend to just keep the latest and greatest thing on the shelves. So even though it is months late and coming in stages, she is still enjoying her little place to be!
