ANYWAY, when the room was initially painted, Alex was still tiny. We had a spring loaded baby gate in the doorway between the livingroom and diningroom. It inevitably rubbed the paint off of the areas where the gate was against the wall. Once the gate was no longer needed, the beautiful white primer shined through. This has been for years now.
In true "son" fashion, Alex decided one day, to "color my world". When a 6yo decides to match his crayons to the wall and color in the white spots, it's totally time to repaint.
So...here's my pic.

That actually has a nice artistic touch to it. Alex is showing some early signs of being a great interior decorator. Not all guys could match colors that closely and he's only 6 (and sooooooooooooo cute!)
Kim's right. Fixing the white spot himself with the resources he has on hand shows great problem-solving skills and motivation :)
Perhaps I'll allow him to watch a musical or two...
Not that there's anything wrong with that ...
Well, he could watch HGTV and perhaps he'll feel inclined to build something. He's pretty darn good at matching colors, don't you think? You go, Alex!!! And he can do a great British accent, too!!!
