This is the boy who woke up early on Thanksgiving morning and began VOLUNTARILY cleaning his room! He said he just felt like it. We thought maybe he needed to see a doctor. Since when do 13 year old boys, who are all about messes, want to clean their rooms? On a holiday? When lots of food is involved? It certainly looks nice in there though. we just sort of shook our bemused heads and went with the flow.






These beautifully arranged shelves are on one side of Jacob's room. He is so pleased with himself!





This is a bookcase that I vanquished from the yarn shop in favor of another spin rack so Jacob inherited it ( at his request ) for his room. See how nice his shelves look? Phil teased him by asking if the DVD's were alphabetized.
