I am just feeling so grateful today for everything. I actually started my weekend in Friday morning because I didn't feel like working in the morning as the garden was calling again, and it was my Mum's birthday in the afternoon and i'd arranged a small family get together since dinner plans had been cancelled as she's just come out of in hospital the day before. So after a lovely swim and film day yesterday, today I was without my wife, as she was busy making plougmans for the judges in the community village show, so after setting up down there, and collecting my daughter from her sleepover, my middle 12yr old son expressed an interest in helping remove that stump, so we tackled it together. We had so much fun doing it, drinking a few cold pepsi and zero alcohol lagers as we worked and laughed together, and got the thing out! We discussed what we should do with it, and decided it would probably make quite a cool table that we could put in the woods. We also worked around the garden pruning a couple other trees, talking about what we could plant where and putting back together the pond filter, and he said he wanted to wash the car, so we did that together after tea. Now he wantss to wax it tomorrow. Think he had a good time. And he's not even mentioned about getting paid! Such a lovely day having some quality father and son time.🥰 Something I never experienced as a boy growing up with my mum and two sisters. (Before evil stepdad came onto the scene) Hope you are having / had a fabulous weekend. 😍 Tell us what you've been up to? .
