They watch us and learn from us even when we don’t think they’re paying attention. They want to be big like us and do the things we do – even the things we don’t like doing. Will loves helping me with the dishes, and Charlie is always first in line to wash windows. They watch Daddy washing and waxing his truck until it shines, and they beg to use the hose and wash their little truck. They notice everything from the mundane details to the big life decisions we make. It’s important to remember little eyes are always watching us. Live a life you would have been proud to look up to as a child. Teach by example, love them with all you have, and let them have fun.

More water fun. Sprinklers and trampolines go together like peanut butter and jelly.
