The ones I found are a regular blue-jean color that works well in a boy's room. Under the denim curtains, I have gauze curtains. That way I can let natural light in in the daytime but we still have some Jaelithehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12081888212421953409noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17635299.post-80867954212725754932008-03-07T19:07:00.000-06:002008-03-07T19:07:00.000-06:00I hate mornings. *grumbles*I'm glad my kids sleep ...I hate mornings. *grumbles*<BR/><BR/>I'm glad my kids sleep through them, at least somewhat.Anne/kqhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16196525565601253852noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17635299.post-37190713043976547902008-03-07T13:08:00.001-06:002008-03-07T13:08:00.001-06:00Oh, it doesn't look all that hot, but it's removab...Oh, it doesn't look all that hot, but it's removable and I don't care because it gives me a minimum of an hour's more sleep!Ginahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11604097511444010759noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17635299.post-42082116693647322812008-03-07T13:08:00.000-06:002008-03-07T13:08:00.000-06:00We put a blackout shade on Mr. P's window and it w...We put a blackout shade on Mr. P's window and it works like a charm!Ginahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11604097511444010759noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17635299.post-48231048955786424822008-03-07T11:48:00.000-06:002008-03-07T11:48:00.000-06:00I have to confess, I am just like Evan.

If the sun comes up at 4:30am that's when I wake-up.<BR/><BR/>PS: I am not that obsessed with Halloween. It's just fun.
