The girls were so excited to wrap Daddy's presents today. I wish I could say I was more charitable when it came to letting them wrap presents, but I'm not. I'm kind of greedy that way! I like nice clean lines, smooth corners and minimal tape.
But, I knew that Daddy would not mind opening presents wrapped by the girls. And honestly, I wouldn't either. I'd probably "ooooh and aaaah" over their wrapped presents more so than a perfectly wrapped present with a big fluffy bow.
So, why can't I let go? Must be that 'control issue' I have...
Lord, help me to let go of the things that bring me joy, so that my girls can enjoy those things and BE joyful in the process.
It looks like they had a ball doing it! My kids love it when I let them help out (but I'm like you and have to MAKE myself give up that control.)
ReplyDeleteYour girls look adorable in their color-coordinated outfits. :)
AWWW bless them - they look so proud and happy - lovely photos and so is the one for my xmas card THANKS.
ReplyDeleteI remember you being horrified by a present I let Ashley decorate for a playgroup bday. Heehee.
ReplyDeleteLooks to me your girls got the hang of it pretty good. So cute!
