Do It Yourself

I have an amazing, supportive husband and have been told many times by other couples what a unique find he is. I agree. He is pretty special. One of the things I love most about Frank is that he loves to teach our children how to do things. If he has to go down in the crawl space under our house to fix a pipe or start the waterline to the swamp cooler, then he takes Rose with him. If there are home repairs to be done, he gets the kids to help.  Last year he even planted strawberries out of our front window and had our daughter help with the whole process.


One of the things that I love most that he does for Daddy/Kid time is he'll take Rose and sometimes even Cyperus to the Kids Workshops at Home Depot held the first Saturday of every month. They LOVE it. They get to do mini projects, have their own child-sized Home Depot aprons, and come home with pins to keep on their apron.  Frank took Rose this last weekend and she came home with the most beautiful flower stand, complete with a miniature potted planted.


These special weekend events are a great way for kids to learn to do things for themselves, and some great one-on-one time with a Mom or Dad.
