Jubilee Furniture weekly update for Friday, May 17th 2013

My brain is all a whirl trying to take in both my daughter’s graduation of less than two weeks ago and my son’s graduation tomorrow.  My daughter can now add “MSW” (masters in social work) after her name and my son will have his undergrad degree in media communication (emphasis on film).

(here’s a photo of me and Abby after her graduation)

STOP THE BUS – when did my kids become adults?  Weren’t we just changing diapers and singing the Barney clean up song?  With a blink of an eye we went from signing report cards without grades (I always thought that was sorta pointless – and maybe they don’t do it any more – but every kid quickly learns that a “-“ means “bad”) to needing our child’s written permission to see their grades!  Did I enjoy Abby and Jack’s growing up years or was I too busy working and cleaning the house?  Would I have regularly stopped in at Jubilee Furniture or thought a dingy warehouse is no place for young children?

Thankfully, I can answer that last question with great confidence since – though, indeed, Jubilee Furniture is a dingy warehouse – it’s also a great place to bring kids with our entrance table loaded with delicious FREE cookies; our child-size table and chairs where little ones can color; and our large showroom filled with fabulous furniture which is perfect for a rousing game of hide-and-seek (though no running, please!)!

So, I invite you – and your youngins – to stop in either today from 1 to 8 or tomorrow from 9 to 4!  The following photos are just SOME of what you’ll find currently in the store:

Though I could all too easily go to a negative place of feeling like I was a distracted parent worried about finances and dust bunnies – I choose, instead, to remember the long summer mornings spent at our favorite park and bath time where my two mixed up “concoctions” until the water got cold – and look into their dearly beloved – adult - faces and marvel at how much I really LIKE them – and smile.

We done good, dear reader.  We done good.
