An Imperfect Fence Mends Hearts





We (Baba and I) have had this bamboo screen for quite some time with the intent of putting it up together. I have struggled with "how" this project was going to get done as I was always the "assistant" (aka tool holder, beverage bringer, etc...). Additionally, since his ascension touching Baba's tools has not come easy for me. However, today after putting out the garbage and recycling, I took and deep breath, found the bamboo roll and took it out of its packaging. I then embarked with our children on completing one of many tasks on Baba and I's get to list.

It was a beautiful lesson on measurements and their conversions as well as safety and proper used of tools (measuring tape and wire cutters). No tears this tool touching and using day! I am so honored that we (our children and I) continue to work well together. After putting away his tools, I could feel Baba's smile and hear him say "Good Job, Babe.Well done, my children!" and I nodded and said "Well, done indeed."
