It’s been a minute, but I wanted to give a little update on Valeria’s room. It’s been….messy to deal with to say the least, but it’s finally been sorted!
I FINALLY picked up her twin mattress about two weeks ago, if my mom brain remembers right. That following weekend my husband and I decided to surprise Valeria by putting it together while she was hanging out with Grandma. Thanks mom! As we were putting the bed together, my husband kept saying “This looks really big…” and to be honest I was questioning it too as to why it seemed so large and it was suppose to be a twin. I shrugged and said “I don’t know, maybe it’s the book shelves that make it seem bigger?” But no, it was not. They sold me a full size bed frame instead of the twin, which is not what I had asked for. We threw the mattress in the middle and I was, needless I was livid. I also wanted proof of the massive mistake.
The following day I went back into the store once again and I was not keeping my cool when I first walked in, but the store manager stepped in pretty quickly. Lucky me, she and I worked together years and years ago. She managed to switch the mattress for me without any additional costs and she had switched it with a Full mattress that was in store. She even looked at my order thoroughly, after I explained my experience, and said that this should have been special handled from the start and all of this back and forth was unnecessary. I felt validated and she definitely turned things around because for the first time, I walked out of that store happy. This whole debacle was stressing and making me upset beyond belief.
We got the mattress in the house and Valeria immediately knew that it was for her. She climbed those stairs as quick as a bunny and ran to her room. Of course, she had to watch her dad and her Zio set up everything for her. I also had to order a new comforter set and mattress protector for her, but it is what it is. Thankfully those came in within two days.
So, she now has her very own bed which she absolutely adores and sleeps sooooooo well in thankfully! And she seems to love actually spending time in her room now, which I am also very happy about.
Here is a little glimpse of her bed and wall stickers, her closet is my next tackle….I have to sort through her clothes and hang things up….again. Sigh! Kids really do grow like weeds!
Hope you are having a wonderful day or night wherever you are in the world!
Ciao!!
