We have been doing a lot of work on the house this year (recap to come later in the year), and co-opting children as a form of cheap labor. I’m sure they found this more enjoyable than scooping wet leaves in November, December or January.

This little boy turned 11, which just blows my mind. He’s an amazing helper, an incredibly hard worker, a prankster and trickster and a great brother. I love this kid so much I can’t stand it. Happy birthday, Owen!
