A Leap of Faith (Part 2)

Chapter 260 - Painting

It is now Friday afternoon, and Kara, Lena, Morgan and Alura are all at their new home currently, about to start with painting all of their bedrooms. They have planned to do this today because they have made plans for all their friends and family to come over to their home tomorrow, and help them set up all their furniture, most of which is being delivered tomorrow too. Seeing as Kara and Lena are keeping their penthouse, there is only so many things that they want to move from their penthouse to their new home. Obviously, Kara could move those pieces of furniture by herself, however Kara and Lena both thought it might look odd to see Supergirl flying about National City carrying furniture. So, because of that, while a few of them are going to be working on assembling some of the new furniture at the house tomorrow, Kara, Alex and Winn will be driving a van to Kara and Lena's penthouse, where they will grab the furniture that Kara and Lena want to move to their new home. They, of course, also intend to move all their clothes, and all of Morgan and Alura's toys and everything, but Kara and Lena know that they can simply do all that in a couple of car trips back and forth between their house and penthouse. On Saturday the group just intend to purely focus on making sure all of the furniture is ready. Then, if they do manage to actually get all of the furniture ready, or at least enough of it, on Sunday Kara and Lena plan to complete the move just by themselves by moving their clothes, and all their items they want in their new home. Kara and Lena do know that their friends and family would happily help them doing that too, but they have decided that they are already taking up their friends and family's Saturday, they want to let them have their Sunday.

Due to all of that, Kara and Lena very much want to make sure that all the painting has been done in their bedrooms. The painting everywhere else in the house has already been completed with the renovations. It is just the bedrooms that they need to paint, to style them to how they want the rooms. So, the foursome will focus on their 3 bedrooms, and just tackle painting all the other bedrooms on another occasion, which will include painting the future baby's room. For now, Kara and Lena just know they need to make the house, and their bedrooms, feel like a home for the people who are actually living right now, they can focus on the baby later.

"Okay girls." Lena says, once they enter their future home with a bunch of paint and brushes, and some tape to make sure the paint doesn't go over the areas they don't want it to, "We have a lot of work to do this afternoon, and evening. So, we have our paint, and need to get started right away."

"I want to paint my room!" Morgan says, excitedly.

"Me too!" Alura says, with a happy smile.

"We will all work together to pain your rooms." Kara says, "But remember, we need to be careful. We don't want to get paint on our brand-new carpets in your rooms. We only want to get paint on the areas we are supposed to. Okay?"

"Yes, okay mommy." Morgan nods.

"Yes." Alura nods.

"Good girls." Lena smiles, lovingly.

Of course, Kara and Lena did consider just having Alura and Morgan be watched by their friends and family this evening, giving the married couple time to paint the rooms themselves. However, Kara and Lena decided that this house is all of their home. Kara and Lena want to make Morgan and Alura feel part of it, and like they are putting themselves into it. They each know how difficult it can be to move from one place you have known as your home for so long to another. So, Kara and Lena want the girls to feel like their new bedrooms are truly theirs.

"Okay then." Lena says, "First, before we get started, we need to all change into clothes that we don't mind accidentally getting paint on. I brought a bunch of our clothes we could do that with in this bag."

"Can't we get paint on these clothes?" Morgan asks.

"No, darling." Lena says, with a bit of a chuckle in her voice, "These are some of your nicer clothes. These clothes in here are just some old clothes that we won't mind throwing away after, as if you get paint on clothes, it is virtually impossible to get the paint out."
