    How gorgeous, is he taking bookings for craft classes yet? I wonder if he’s mastered the Cricut Expression… I’m sure we’d all like to see any cards that Colin has made. I think he could teach us crafters a thing or two!!

    I love this video! I’m glad to see I’m not the only one that “ropes” my husband and son into crafting projects! Actually, they are as kind as your family and love to help out and spend time with me. We’re both lucky ladies to have such great guys!

    1. Your brother is a VERY patient man.
    2. Your husband is a Saint (no way mine would cut and punch).
    3. I want Colin’s eyelashes.
    4. I love this kid. What a charmer, and my goodness is he ever smart! Oh and great fine motor skills!!

    So stinkin’ cute! It’s amazing how well he demonstrated the cuttlebug. Amazing. You must be very patient with him when you teach him things, because he was so patient, detailed, and articulate when he explained the cuttlebug. He even told your brother or husband what to expect (that the butterfly was going to come out the other end). Kudos to you and the rest of the family!

    How sweeeeet is he? Actually brought tears to my eyes. My only child is off to college TOMORROW. I remember those little boy days like they were yesterday. Time really does go by fast. I hope you’re spoiling him rotten with Mommy love…sigh.

    Wow! Thank you Jennifer for sharing this! I love finding ways to incorporate my daughters help into my scrapbooking/card making, I never thought to let her(my 4yr old) do the cuttlebug stuff… great idea! What other tasks do you let him do? Any particular one he likes to do the most??

    Your son and family are just adorable. Aren’t they the best when they help out like that? I also have a wonderful DH and two DSs who help out in my store and do all the crafty stuff that I ask from them. Of course my sons are big, 24 and 20. Thanks for sharing.
