Have him go ahead and buy the bedroom set. It's one less thing you'll have to worry about when you come! The Home Center is just fine for a kid's bedroom and if it's a good price so much the better. When I first came to the Gulf our house didn't have any cabinets, closets, or cupboards, no furniture and not even so much as a teaspoon! I drove myself crazy trying to furnish five bedrooms and two living rooms. Mashaállah our house here came fully furnished, mostly from The One. Take it easy on yourself and let him do some of the work. You'll have enough problems with living room furniture unless you're a fan of Early New Orleans Bordello. Oh, and did I forget the king-sized pink plastic round bed with "mood lights"?
