DIY Kitchen Remodel-Bottom Cabinets and Work Ethics (Part 20)

July 8, 2010 Lana

Do you like something special about your pantry or one you have seen? 

Comments are greatly appreciated and each one is read and past on to the builder (my hubs)!

Seriously, my sweet hubs is getting so fast at putting up sheet-rock.  I went to sleep one night and the next morning it looked like this!  DIY Kitchen Remodel-Bottom CabinetsNot bad work…IMG_4072 I mean it was this when I went to bed…IMG_4082To this when the sun came up!  I love my man!  Do you see my new lazy-susan?  I love her!  IMG_4073 Lil’ guy wanted to get in on the action!IMG_4074 What happens when you get a almost 4 year old and a big vacuum cleaner?DIY Kitchen Lots of pictures by Mom and smiles by Dad.IMG_4076 It is hard work – but somebody had to do it!IMG_4077 Every little bit of dust!  How to make Kitchen CabinetsI mean-every little bit of it!  He’s a mighty cleaning machine!  His Daddy is so patient with him.  I love seeing my Hubs instilling good work ethics in our sons.

It would be easier if the kids weren’t under our feet when working but then we would be missing great teaching moments.  We would rather spend a little extra time teaching good character traits and training to do everything without complaining or have a lazy attitude.  One of my hub’s pet peeves is to hear a teenager whine about doing chores or trying to manipulate his parents while being lazy.
We want our children to love what is good and have an appreciation of doing a great job by blessing others.   If they are asked to go one mile – we want them willingly to go two.  They will not learn how to do this without someone leading by example.  I’m so thankful my hubs is not lazy in anyway.  It is truly inspiring and encouraging!   IMG_4085Our kitchen is coming along nicely.  We have so much more to do, including making the pantry shelves.

    What a lot of work, and it looks great! Not too much longer to go and you can tell already how nice it will be in the end! We’re adding a kitchen to the basement we’re living in this summer! Soon I’ll have a space that looks just like yours! I just started a link party and I would LOVE it if you’d consider adding your crafts to it! I’m having flower headband giveaway as part of our first party too! http://imtopsyturvy.com/index.php/2010/07/topsy-turvy-tuesdays-1/

    How sweet that he wanted to help. My little boy loves helping too. He gets the biggest smile on his face when he helps me. Your kitchen is going to be beautiful. The memories of y’all working together already are.

    great way to teach the lil kiddos about house work in real life.. I did the same with my kids.. teach them how to do simple housework.. epecially when it comes to their belongings like toys, books, clothes, shoes and so on.. they got to be responsible of their belongings.. so that they know how to appreciate them better.. thanks for sharing and have a great weekend!

    Such a great post! Our kids know that whining will only get them MORE work. But beyond that, we have taught them to be grateful for work and in our home it is an honor to serve. We use mealtime to teach them to serve each other and for the non-servers to show honor and respect to the one serving. Oh I could go on and on….maybe I’ll blog about it. LOL! Lisa~

May the LORD bless you and keep you; May the LORD make His face shine upon you and be gracious to you; May He turn His face toward you and give you peace. Feel free to leave a comment - we LOVE to hear your thoughts! ~Blessings to you!~ ~You are so loved!~ ~Lana (Like Banana)~
