Daddy's little helper 2


Not to be put off by the other day's unfortunate little incident Mana decided to help me out again and who could say no when she says "Daddy,Mana help youuuuu?" ........"OK Mana but I want you to be careful today and listen to Daddy OK?" she answered with a "Haiiiiiiiiiii" which lasted all the way to the shoe rack as she "plonked" herself down to put on her pink gumboots and bubble pattern gloves again.

With the frame all measured up and a few bits to cut,we tacked the sawing and as soon as she found a rhythm she was off.
When the off-cut fell to the ground she put both arms in the air shouting "YATTA"

Next job was to screw in the latch which was also done with great enthusiasm and the whole concept of going slowly at the start was taken on board (although she just couldn't resist giving it a "Flat out" run) and as for the nailing,well I had done it all before hand but she really wanted to do it so I just let her go,took at least 10 minutes.....didn't matter she LOVED it and there you have it one finished gate that Father and Daughter built


........Mum was pretty happy too (I think it was because Mana didn't hurt herself and cry today)
