Building Turtles and Houses


Jasper and Adam had their creative juices flowing in the sandbox one night. They first made a big turtle, then a house, then this...umm...bridge-type thing. That sandbox has provided MANY hours of entertainment. Just tonight Jasper pretended one of his loaders (his skidloader to be exact) was stuck in the sand. So, he used a metal pan as pretend plywood to put under the tires so the skidloader could get unstuck. This experience stemming from the real-life experience of our neighbors, April and Josh, who put in some new landscaping and let Jasper ride on the skidloader a couple times. Jasper watched this whole process intently and said they were building a "bob the builder wall." One day, the real skidloader did get stuck and Adam helped put plywood under the tires to get it unstuck, hence the most recent experience in the sandbox. He is a fixer and as he sometimes calls himself, 'a worker!'
