Remodeling, cleaning and dreaming of knitting...

Yesterday I pulled up half the carpet in my bedroom and half in the children's bedroom. Along with various other chores. I was woken up at two in the morning to Rhyyan (9) saying she had ripped up all the carpet in her room. I thought yeah right the side that held the bunk bed and everything else... ( this girl has been known to sleep walk) so I told her to go to bed and get up i the morning. To which she replied 'it is morning, it is 2 in the morning' I again said go to bed. <I'd rather not get woke up in the night. Ick> 

    This morning I walked past their room... Carpet was all in a heap... Except where she and Joelle had left it under the legs of the bed. She said they tried several times to move the bed but each effort was fruitless... I wasn't dreaming. She really had came in to tell me what she had done. And in my grumpy let me sleep mood I hadn't even said thank you. She did however love my shocked look this morning. I think that made up for it. 

    Those are two of my children. Mine. Doing hard work. Just to surprise me. I'm thankful. I wouldn't have finished today had they not done that. I so thankful. They don't always keep their room clean. Or get their chores done fast. But. They can still work their tails off. They're awesome. 

    And I on the other side of their wall slept through it all... They were pretty surprised at that I hear...
