Arts and Crafts With Daddy


Art is much more artistically inclined then I am. A few years ago (when Chelsea was really little) he sat down with her and a pile of construction paper to make some holiday decorations. They made things like the Grinch, Hermie the Elf ( from Rudolph ) Santa, and Snowmen. The tradition has stuck and every year now for different holidays they grab a stack of construction paper and make decorations. Last night they a gruesome Frankenstein. The children have a great time spending this time with their dad, and dad enjoys it too. The other thing Art does that makes it really neat is that he uses parts of the children in the decorations. Last night he traced Alex's hands and Christian's feet, and last time he used Nick's hands and Anthony's feet. Chelsea was not interested in working on this last night, she was engrossed in a different project (more on that another time.)
