work day

Lily helped Papa fix the wall.
~
When we killed the termites
that had been munching away on the house
for about 40 years -
the house went into 'rapid decay' mode.
(we honestly didn't think
things could get much worse than they were!)
Turns out that the little buggers actually keep
natural decay from setting in while they're going about their business.
We'd considered letting them live
but when they started eating our John Bell picture
just a few months after we moved in,
they signed their own death warrant!

Josiah helped paint the bedroom door
while Jeremiah and Brandon painted the bathroom door
all by themselves!
looks great, guys

when they headed to Yeagers
I said, "You do realize they think they get to paint?!"
we're talking $30 a gal high gloss make a mess trim paint, here....
he said, "they do get to paint!!"

Honey, I'm proud of you!
it's hard to let little guys help do big jobs

now the girl is plumb tuckered out!
