Finishing the Window
Zoë and Abby were so happy to get to help finish up the window today! Unfortunately we had some rain and weren't able to get out there and finish it up until today. I'm surprised how much the girls don't mind being dragged to one home improvement store or another time and again to get little odds and ends, such as clamps.
The girls mostly observed, but also got to help steady some things and got to watch as Chris and I attached the frame - Chris from outside the house and me safely inside to hold it in place - and finally as it was put in place. Abby was happy when she got to go to the basement to get the tube of caulking, and felt very proud when her and Zoë were asked to go back to the basement to put something away and she got to show Zoë were the box with the tubes were "just in case Zoë ever needed to go get one for Daddy... she'll know where they are."
