But last week you should have heard all the whoopin' and hollerin' coming from the front yard. It started out as one of those conversations monopolized by, "Hey, watch this. Look at me. Can you do this?" And then she really wondered if he could do. He said it had been a while and he wasn't sure. Then she became his biggest cheerleader. "Oh, I bet you can! Try! See!" Finally he did. And he could. And she jumped up and down cheering, "You did it! You're doing it!! Way to go!!" It was great, as is Andrew.
Hoopin'
This is Andrew, the yard man. (Our landlords employ him. We are happy to do our own yard, but they dropped about 2 grand landscaping the front yard before we moved in and, well, we didn't want to kill it.) Anyway, Andrew gets TONS of "help" when he comes. He lets the kids use his clippers and everything. Joseph gets a little carried away...a few weeks ago I found him dismantling a sprinkler. Claimed it wasn't working right and he needed to fix it. Andrew is a great sport. Olivia's bug collection always grows when he comes.
