Daddy Dear We Love You So

Last week Jake and I were suddenly awakened at 3 AM by a sharp knock on our door. I thought my kids were dying! No, my dad needed to be rushed to the emergency room for reasons that are to be withheld. I waited there for 4 hours, very angry from lack of service...but that's another story. When we got back dad graciously offered to watch the kids while Jake and I went to run some errands. Admittedly, this was a bit of a nerve-racking experience for me especially since he had to feed them both also. But, we let him do it. While we were gone Lukey had a poopy! Dad changed his bum which was so gracious of him and rather unexpected. Well, when we got back and changed his bum again we just had to LAUGH at the strange, strange way the diaper was put on by dad and marvel at the miracle that it held anything in at all! We love you, Dad!

That is so funny!!! How did your dad have 11 kids, and like 15 grandkids, and never learn to properly change a diaper? However, I don't know that my dad would do much better :)

I love the crafts. I need to do stuff like that with Bryton and get his creative juices flowing. What a great activity!!!

How funny! I hope your dad is OK though.
I love the craft, I have yet to get paint out at my house, because its a rental and I am paranoid about getting it in the carpet and having it stain and then having to pay to replace it etc. The same for outside on the porch, what if it gets all over, blah blah blah. Fortunatley Shuana let's my kids be crafty at her house!
Your boys are getting so big! They are adorable. Can't wait to see them.

I hope your Dad is okay.

You are super Mom Emily. You have two kids under the age of 2 and one on the way. Your incredible.
Loved the craft.Your boys are darling.

That's hilarious. I can't believe after how-ever-many years of changing diapers, he's still clueless!
