One Skill Among Many

Helping Ant pack for his trip gives me the warm fuzzies, and not because I'm an asshole. I have spent the last 5 years teaching him how to pack. We started out with me choosing what he needed, and have graduated to him packing his own stuff with very little supervision. For Topaz, he's got it down and rarely messes that up anymore. I'm still heavily involved in the packing for the annual trip to Grandpa's, but only in a consulting role. Ant decides what he thinks he'd like to wear and I only help him edit rather than do it myself. Maybe this seems trivial, but it goes on my running list of things that I have taught him. This skill comes from me.
