Daddy Wisdom

Bubs and his friends were proud of themselves. You see-there's this empty lot they love to play in. The boys all got loads (and I mean loads) of mud and caked it on the For Sale sign to prevent any buyers from seeing the info and building on the lot.

I hated to crash the party, but I said, "We can't mess up other people's property," and Bubs (being the tender heart that he is) realized he was in the wrong, and started crying. But then, he made the right choice. He put his snow gear back on and trudged outside to clean off the mud.

Daddy and I were proud of him.

"Everyone makes mistakes," Daddy said. "It's not what you do, it's what you do about it."

And while I pondered Daddy's profound statement, he put on his snow gear and trudged out to help.

I love those guys. I really do.

Aren't Daddies Great?

We started some casual summer homeschooling aka unschooling this week. I love having Daddy home to help out! He and Bubs have been practicing basketball together and tying flies.

I'm so thankful for the wonderful daddies in my life...for the 'rough and tumble' play, the skills, the life lessons, and most of all the love I know they have for me and my babies.

When we decided to homeschool, my Bebe quit his job to work from home. I'm grateful that he wants to be here. I love having him around.
