Crown Molding For Erin...

Stephen means "crown" in Greek. So when T decided that our new nursery needed crown molding, I was the natural choice. Plus I have a miter saw.

The nursery, lest you jump to the wrong conclusion, is for granddaughter Erin. Child psychologists, if asked, would probably say that a young lady's development is enhanced if, when at Gram's House, she can stare up at a ceiling framed with crown molding.

I spent my formative years looking at plain right-angles where the ceiling and walls met. We don't want little Erin to suffer my fate.

So, I am installing crown molding in the nursery. For Erin.

My own namesake Stephen, in case you don't already know, was Christianity's very first martyr. So you can begin to imagine how I felt as I gathered my carpentry tools and trudged upstairs to begin work.

Erin, when you get a little older, please check out the nursery at Gram's house. The crown molding around the top is for you!

Here is where the persecution began...
This is what would have happened if the crown molding turned out to be ugly...
