Firewood seems to consume a great many months of our lives. In the fall it starts with the loading of wheelbarrows and the lighting of stoves which continues through the many winter months and spring brings the cutting and chopping of more wood to replenish the woodshed.
K has been out alongside my dad helping this year. 
Together they have been cutting down some of the leaning alders and cutting them into the exact lengths needed to fit our woodstoves.
My younger two have been out checking out what they've been up to as well. They love to use the rounds as balance beams, seeing who can last the longest as they walk along them rolling from side to side :)
One big perk to having a growing boy is that he can help with some of the manly chores. With his dad away for work so much of the time this is definitely appreciated by this mama...
Plus there are some monetary rewards that make the work just a little bit sweeter *grin*.
