Bless his little heart. He’s still at that age where “helping out” is fun. Thanks to E.B., Mommy has the shiniest el cheapo standard Ford hubcaps ever! Don’t hate, y’all.

It’s just too stinkin’ bad that by the time he can mow the yard (OH, Happy Day!!!), “helping” won’t be fun anymore. I’m convinced this is why some families have, like, 17 children. One child for each chore.

    That is cute. My youngest is 11, the others are teens and it is a constant…do this, do that…with an …. hummmph when they realize I mean it.

    Now, as far as your tires, cheer up. You don't have el cheapo hubcaps…hon, those are aluminum wheels with a lug nut cover. BE PROUD! LOL

    i am always tempted to say no when they ask to help, but then remember that one day they won't ask!

    LOL – Helping and teen years is very rare. Here is to hoping that your son and my boys keep it up. BTW, I sent you a virtual Hershey's Better Basket on my blog http://bit.ly/9CJ6EM. It is for a great charity and I hope you enjoy.
