Little Helpers








A Portrait of my Children once a month every month in 2013 via Che & Fidel [top to bottom: Flynn 4 months, with George, with Noah, with Charles, with Eleanor]

I have a great gang of little helpers around here. Real help. They do so much to make things run smoothly, from entertaining Flynn to feeding animals. The older ones will read to the younger ones and they all help out with jobs around the house. I'm super proud of how well they've coped since Flynn's arrival and don't know how I would have managed these last 4 months without their willingness to be involved.  So this month I thought I'd try to take photos of the Kidlets in action with their baby brother.

From last week, I really enjoyed this lovely portrait of a couple of super sweet siblings.
