My Sweet Widgie

Since early January, I have been privileged to watch Kenton & Heidi Snyder's son, Ridge, about four days a week. He was 2 mos. old then and we have had SO much fun bonding with him and watching him grow and change. Our kids are very attached to him as well. When Hattie sees Kenton coming to pick him up, she says, "Here comes the baby stealer!" and proceeds to try to talk him out of it. I have really enjoyed this and it has had side benefits you might not think about. We re-did our budget early in the year and lets just say that there is not a lot of "fluff" worked into it:-). Not only do I earn money doing this, but I am less mobile and therefore less likely to be spending time in town spending $$!! I have also gotten more done around the house simply because I am here more. Lena gets so excited each morning when "her sweet Widgie" arrives. So...thank you Kenton and Heidi for entrusting your sweet boy to us.
It has been pure joy!
