Help...

Whatever I'm doing, Ben wants to "help". Although it often makes things take twice as long, I try to indulge him when ever it's reasonable. Makes for some great fun and some great learning opportunities! :)

Ben has his own wash line and hangs out some of his own laundry:

Helping Tim put a railing on the deck. The nails fit perfectly between the deck boards.


"Painting" the deck. Give Ben a brush and some water and he'll be occupied for hours!

Serious stuff.
Once it was all cut up, they burned it in the outdoor fireplace. Good practice for cutting firewood for our shack up north.
