Sandbox full of fun

We have had a sandbox for months now but Cody has showed zero interest in it. He has touched the sand a time or two but would always come to me and say 'mess' and want me to wipe his hands off......he isn't the typical boy that likes to play in the mud....yet! But this past Sunday Ashlyn showed him how to scoop the sand, fill up a bucket and 'play' in the sand. You could see his little wheels turning in his head. Concentration at its best! It was so sweet from my perspective to sit back and watch Ashlyn and him bond. He loved it, and I think Ashlyn loved it just as much and enjoyed spending that time with him. I am so thankful that the girls are so in love with him. It isn't always easy having a toddler around and they never (well I will not go that far.....rarely) complain about him. They are usually more then happy to have 'Cody Duty' as we call it and help me out with him. I know they are held back a little because of him but the love they have for him is amazing! He is one lucky little boy!
