Gifted hands and an amazing attitude...We were so blessed this weekend by my brother, sister and her husband coming along side our busy farm and doing so many of the random jobs that multiply and accumulate so quickly! Not only did they accomplish much, but I was also encouraged by the spirit in which they worked...including the littles, welcoming the "helping hands", demonstrating and teaching along the way, not getting frustrated when the two year old made a game of climbing back and forth under Dave's knee while he was kneeling and drilling into the wall (with three other helpers). Can we be reminded too often, that the best way children learn is by example? Encouragement and conviction all at the same time! The prize of the day, however, goes to Natalie for emerging domesticity...

That's our motto here, "many hands make light work"!! Great pictures of a busy family. Well, except for the squirrel. I could not cook that either!

What an encouragement they all must have been! And that picture of Natalie is a classic - one that you definitely need to actually print and keep for her down the road. *Grin*
Love,
