cleaning my bedroom for decorating

Last summer I decided that I wanted my bedroom decorated blue with pictures of dolphins, fish, whales and sharks on my wall.

Daddy said it could be done in January if I could keep my room tidy.

January came and we hardly made any changes to my room at all. I was a bit annoyed with Daddy, but it was because I had not kept things tidy, so this month I decided that he ought to make a start.

Last week we got some soda crystals and began scrubbing the walls. I had drawn on them with wax crayons and felt tip pens, so they were very messy and scribbly. I worked away at a small corner next to my curtains while Daddy cleaned one whole wall. I think the place where I was cleaning was meant to be a big black lake and one of my friends had written our names on the wall.

Daddy was working away on lots of different coloured grass, a cat which was orange, some scribbles and faces and a dragon which Mummy had drawn.

This morning Daddy worked on an area above my wardrobe while I worked on the same patch as yesterday.

We are going to carry this week and I’m very excited about the work we have done so far.
