Molly, the helper...

Molly has become quite the helper this year. She is always in the mix of wanting to do things when we are working outside. She loves to help Kyle plant new shrubs. She is willing to help pull weeds, and pick up dead rhodie flowers (of course there is usually an incentive of some treat for the help)! Yesterday, we started a new project - surprise - of a new sidewalk. Since buying the house, we have wanted a sidewalk that goes directly to the front door so you don't have to walk around the car in the driveway. We had left over pavers from the backyard patio, and thought it would be perfect for this project. Well, little miss Molly was helping with shovel full of dirt most of the day. She would get a scoop and diligently carry it over to the truck and stretch just enough to get most of it in the back. It was fun to watch - and snap a few pictures - of the hardwork she was willing to do on her own. Well done, Molly!
