But then there is Matt, the Dad, who is in a word: The Bomb!
Matt sees through the daily "must dos" and inserts the "can dos". Matt sees a lot of teachable moments that I just do not.
……
Matt spends hours working on Isaac's new leather glove to get it ready for baseball season.
"Shouldn't Isaac do that?" I ask.
"My dad did this for me, so I'll do for Isaac," says Matt, "and you'll do it for your kids, won't you Isaac?"
Isaac nods enthusiastically.
……
We are redoing all the beds and dressers for the boys' room.
I'd try and do it all by myself. But Matt willingly hands the boys tools, gives them tasks, and embraces their willingness to help.
OKAY! SO. The boys' room is SO close to being done. I cannot wait to show you guys.
We've been dealing with a crazy mess of an upstairs for almost a month. But everything is coming together. YAY!
But Matt hasn't minded too much. Cause that means he could shop of tools, haha
