The girls’ room.
Originally uploaded by zoeinbrussels.

I know I’ve blogged this photo before, but seeing as 15 year old Todd’s bedroom is featured just below, I think it fair to say that the girls (they shared this room up until 2003) were a lot tidier when they were 13 than Todd ever was.

Coralie now sleeps here and has my old king-sized mattress on the floor. The room remains pretty tidy although Tatiana’s room is a disaster and only gets cleaned up when her boyfriend stays over.

My bedroom is pretty large, but the areas of it that are a mess should be catalogued.

I’ll do it – and then de-clutter.

    Me first! That set of drawers is the same one as shown in Todds room.
    I think the photos are “staged” by you to show the kids in a bad light. I bet the kids are really tidy in real life. Shame on you!

    Coralie ie pretty tidy in her bedroom – now (this photo is 6 years old), her sister isn’t. Todd never has been.
    There you go.

    Is it the boyfriend who cleans the room? Sounds like a pretty valuable catch if this is the case…….

    Guess that dresser has been missing a drawer for years!

    By a quirk of fate there is an extra pre-teen boy staying over tonight. The bedroom absolutely reeks of Lynx deodorant…used to cover up the smell of farts, bad breath and athletes foot.
    It will only get worse, I know.
