Pillows

I became aware that I may have a little bit of a pillow problem a few weeks ago. We were driving in the car when out of the blue Conner said,

"Mom, do you think that we might have too much fancy stuff at our house?"

"Fancy stuff?" I asked confused, "What do you mean?"

"You know, like all of the pillows that we have."

"Oh, right...all of the pillows..." was all that I could say.

To illustrate what Conner may have been talking about, I took some pictures this morning while I was making my bed.

Here is a picture of the chair in my bedroom that nightly gets weighed down with the pillows that have to come off of the bed in order for us to be able to sleep in it. This nightly ritual has become the subject of many jokes. There are 8 pillows stacked precariously on that chair. It makes me smile just to look at them.

Here's a picture of my unmade bed. Oh, look! There are 2 more pillows on the bed! How exciting! Now, to reassemble the pillow masterpiece. Here are the first 2 pillows. Chocolatey brown, yum!

Next comes the 2 snowy white pillows. I HAVE to have the white ones for some contrast. Oh, and don't forget the 2 cream pillows that match the comforter.I love this DARK brown one. It off-sets the girly white one really nicely, don't ya think?Wait, I put those on the wrong sides! There, that's better.

And here they all are nestled, snuggly together. A happy family of 10.I can't help it. I really do NEED all of my pillows.
