I like spaces. I especially like creative spaces, spaces with lots of color and interest. With four kids it can be hard to have a space just to myself. A few years back I remember losing the last little bit of space I called my own. My space became space for the kids to play. I always knew as a dad I would have to sacrifice for my kids, but I didn’t think they would consume all my space. I was wrong.
Just the other day I came home to a surprise. In our new house we have an office, a space for my stuff, a space to create, a space to read, a space to write. Up until last week this space was pretty boring. Well, boring according to my taste. Well, when I was away for school, my wife decorated the space. She added color. She painted furniture she found. She had my mother-in-law reupholster an old chair. When I came home she had transformed the office space from boring to BAM (my word for amazing). Here are a few pictures…
My wife and mother-in-law truly did an amazing job. I heard they worked their rear end off, and it shows.
I like spaces, creative spaces. I hope this website becomes a space, a creative space where I can share thoughts, ideas, pictures, and anything else that comes to my mind. This is my space, but I totally understand others might stop by once in a while. I look forward to the interactions. So, let the journey begin.
