Playing with Marianna

is  probably a big help. Keeps her out of the way.

That face says it all...little ratbag..one just wants to scoop her up and cuddle but I bet she would wriggle away.

How wonderful that the family are all helping to renovate while Daddy is away...I can't wait for this to be all over...

Sometimes being with the children is the best help.

That little one is a darling. I am so happy they have help with that old house. Ours is 119 yrs old and we have been working on it for almost 30 years and each day you see a lot of things yet to be done. The relatives are so dear to help and give her things to work with. That little girl is a gift of all gifts.

Marianna is clearly enjoying her victory - probably singing 'Don't fence me in...!' And I love old houses, once properly fixed up of course, but this one seems well on its way...

Marianna looks like a handful, but adorable. If only we could

bottle the energy those little ones exude, and distill it for use when we get silver threads among the gold and have days when we have none. Mama used to say her tired aches, and more and more often I begin to know exactly what she meant.  The house will be so much a home when they've all put their love and attention into it.

That is cool that the house is being restored...My dad's put away the sandals now that the temperature has gotten cooler.

I'm sure he will be so surprised and crying when he sees all the work everybody contributed to make that house a home for him and his family....What a beautiful family you have!

Peter will be relieved to find such an upgrade, but he deserves it to happen.
