Daddy, You No Work Today?

 It's always the first question the boys ask upon waking, "Daddy, you no work today?"


And, it's pretty easy to see why they ask, right?


I like to think I'm pretty fun, but really?


Jumping off of play structures into large piles of leaves...


Not something this mama probably would have come up with on her own!


Seriously daddy!  That's high!


You could poke an eye out on a stick or something!


But these three (ahem, four) boys threw caution to the wind and literally jumped in with both feet.


They were also happy to do a little dirty work...


And, I'm happy to report... no one poked their eye out on a stick...


Not even me!

Fun! I read once about a study whose outcome basically indicated that kids are more daring when their dads are around, supposedly as a result of the unpredictable way Dad's play. Isn't it beautiful to see how God designed parents to each impact their kids in unique ways?

I'd love to read that study! I can see it being SO true!

I'd love to see the study too! Love the super fun Daddy pictures! I just love seeing guys playing with their kiddos and loving it. Where were you? That looks like fun!
We played in the leaves today! I'll have to post about it tonight if I can.

fun! I love doing those type of things with kids. Dads are the best tho! I bet the boys have been jumping off things for days now.
