Honorary Big Brother

Last Saturday, Dex and I planned to go paint pottery. We decided to ask his friend Tabitha if she could join us. Turns out, Tabitha was at an Art Fair at a park a few blocks from the house when I called her Mom so we walked over and met her and her family there.

We explored the Children's Garden (tasting some Gooseberries, raspberries, and not-yet-ripe grapes pulled from the bushes).

Then Dex kicked into honorary "big brother" mode. He helped pull Tabitha's little sister, Libby, in the wagon

and held her hand when she wanted to be carried rather than walk

and helped supervise her painting at the Kid's Tent. Later, I took Tabitha and Dex to paint some pottery. I was so impressed with and proud of how well-behaved they were.
