Today after Eli had dinner I decided to take Eli out front to play while we waited for Thomas to get home from work. I have been wanting to work on my flower beds for a while now and Thomas and I bought some mulch and flowers this weekend so I needed to get on it.
Eli played with his cars at first but then decided that what mommy was doing was much more interesting. Eli helped me pull weeds, get ride of the old mulch, till the soil, spread the fresh mulch and then help clean up the weeds and old mulch. It was so cute to watch him try a mimic everything I would do. He would just have his own Eli twist to it. I sure do wish I had someone there to take a picture of Eli and I working side by side on the flower bed.
After the flowers were planted and everything cleaned up it was time to water the new plants. Eli just loved this. Of course I would spray Eli down with the hose and he would go running all over the drive way. Soon Eli got a hold of the hose and tried to pray mommy down. Eli is also getting the hang of drinking out of the hose. It's so cute to watch and see his little tong going in and out trying to lap up the water. I don't think a camera could capture the cuteness that was happening tonight.
I just love my little boy so much. Every day my love for him grows deeper and deeper. I can't believe that God allows Thomas and I to raise such an amazing child. What amazes me more is the amount of love I have for Eli and the fact that God loves me even more then that. I look forward to what else God has in store for the Mullinnix family
