Mr A's creation of the Day

We have Globe Willow Trees in our back yard! They are self pruning and make a huge mess. They are great for Shade in the summer and provide excellant nesting areas for a large variety of bird. We love the Robins and wish the Magpies would find another home.
After every wind storm we have to pick up the fallen branches, some large but most are small and the kids help stack them to be taken to the dump. Sometimes it storms again before we get them picked up and this makes for an every greater mess.
Mr A had yesterday off from school for Easter Break, he built this "TEEPEE" from scratch or STICK he was very proud of himself and so are we. Thanks Jake for starting him and making him feel good about what he was doing. Your comments were just right and not critical but kind.
As you can see we are back to wearing hats all the time because his hair is thinning again as a result of the Chemo.
He has a fantastic attitude this time arround, and we Love him and pray for his speedy recovery

What a fun tepee. I am glad people can help pick up all those branches.
