Mission accomplished . . .

We enjoyed a Mother's Day barbecue up at Simply Country Farm. When we walked into the back yard there was a brand new barbecue that was a birthday gift given to my son-in-law a couple weeks ago, however he hadn't had the time to put it together. He and Christian were busy sorting out parts, going over instructions, and double checking each other's work. About half way through, 12-year-old Christian took over and completed the job . . .

I watched him read and study the instructions . . .

Find the part needed for each step . . .

Double check instructions . . .

Carefully attach each nut and bolt and washer . . .

Until the job was done. He was quite proud of himself, and I was too!

Soon his dad took over for he's the barbecue king in the family.

Christian was the first to sit down at the table . . . delicious barbecued chicken was enjoyed by all of us. Happy Mother's Day indeed!

 Life is good!
