John Paul

John Paul is the son of one of the guys working on our backyard. He was on spring break from school last week so he tagged along with his dad each day. It didn't take long for him and the twins to become fast friends. So much so that one day he didn't come and Timo walked up to his daddy and asked "Where go John Paul?"

By last Friday I figured all the kids needed a break from the backyard so we took off for the park to feed the duck and kick the soccer ball around. I have to say the ducks were a little more bold this time around. We just kinda tossed all the bread in at once because they were climbing out of the water to get to the food.

John Paul had fun showing off his soccer skills for the kids. And the kids loved kicking the ball around.



A little snack by the tree (the grass was wet from the sprinklers) and then a nice stroll back home...John Paul was so helpful with the kids, I felt like I was the one tagging along!

After the kids woke up from their nap they asked for John Paul so we headed to the backyard for some more fun. John Paul let Timo fill up his dirt bucket and did some serious dumptruck work with the sand box. Once all the "work" was done, John Paul enjoyed showing the kids his handy work of moving the rocks into the patio pit. Thanks John Paul for the hours of fun! We'll miss you this week.
