I'll tell you what, I think that will be an important space for smallsteps until the day she moves out. That is just cool beyond all mention.
My friends in E Washington had a small bunkhouse on the property that they did a very little work to make a space for my God Daughter. It's where I stayed when I was visiting. To her undying credit Tera never ever bellyached about me taking the space, but she had some good stuff there. Her turntable and vinyl, her antique camera collection and more. Her space changed over the years, but it was never less hers.
I love the new openness in your entry. It's going to be a great space for you in years to come.
If the concrete guys pour in the evening you should be safely able to walk on the concrete in the morning. It won't be able to handle much traffic or any weight for a few days, but bathroom calls should be just fine.
A pretty good day for a slave, I'd say.
I think this one might be a bit small for her as she grows, but I have some idea that she can have a piece of the basement one day :)
It is pretty cool for parents to give their children space and while I know it isn't always possible (the world has a lot of variation), some space is - even a little corner where they can read a book in peace.
I think this is the plan - but with a 4 year old (and my wife for that matter) -when nature calls :D
We have been invited to the neighbours place too, which we might take them up on.
