Science on her side. I think?

Cailin and Cassidy are campaigning to share a bedroom, and have offered every manner of argument in favor of a sisterly sleepover on a nightly basis.

I am totally on board (which has less to do with their persuaion and more to do with freeing up one more room!), and actually making decorating plans for a January move, although we are making them earn the treat by showing they can get along before we give them the green light. Being my daughters, the biggest factor is not how they will work out sharing a space, but instead how they will paint the space! Much conversation has revolved around style (shabby chic) and color (pink or blue...?), but Cailin has the definitive answer on what the color should be.

The room must be blue; no other color will work to help them achieve the harmony we requested. According to her, Mrs. Hitt (otherwise known as 4th grade teacher extraordinaire and expert of all things important) told them last year that blue is the most calming color. The fact that Mrs. Hitt said it should be enough, but knowing we want hard, cold facts, (ahem) she backed up this claim with the assertion that, "Mrs. Hitt said there is scientific-al proof that it is the most calming color.".

Well, with scientific-al proof who are we to argue? Blue it is!
