    Hanging with Emily on Father's Day Weekend

    Set my ENO Doublenest up and did some hanging with my daughter Emily. She is disabled, born with a seizure disorder so can't walk or talk but she sure loves to snuggle. Put her in sideways and let her swing some, she really loves this and it's supposed to be good for her. Funny, wasn't really thinking of her when I got this but can see we are going to use it a lot. I was worried she might fall out, but it's stable enough she could roll over and pick things up off the ground.

    That's really great. It's nice that a hammock can bring family closer together.

    That's awsome. Nothing like snuggling with the daughter.

    Ha that's just great ... little father daughter time is always good. Glad you have that time together. And I agree quite a lovely young lady. What a wonderful smile.

    Thanks all, she is a doll. I imagine my son and his GF will be giving it a try. Hopefully they will determine if the straps will hold before I test it with the wife (Hahaha)!!!
