Boys will be boys - right?

Boys will be boys - but it doesn't mean the Mama's heart can't skip a few beats in the mean time! They wanted to use their pocket knives to sharpen their pencils - and although the supervision typically falls to my husband - he was at work and it fell to me. SO... I grab my trusty camera. Took a deep breath and let them practice. 

All in all they showed great judgement (thanks to the groundwork laid by both their grandpa & father)... but I was there to make darned sure no blood was lost. 

Mission accomplished. 

Now - for a glass of wine. 

Phew.


My oldest's progress.

My youngest gets an A for effort!

The finished product - maybe I should let them practice more!
