JohnMitchell 14 #29 August 29, 2012 Quote packing parachutes is HArd work...but hard work can be a GOOD thing.... He's always been a hard worker. With him and me being the only guys in a house full of women, he's always been the one to help me do all the guy stuff, like chopping wood, changing oil, digging holes and welding stuff back up. Last winter, an ice stormed downed about a cord of wood in our backyard. I was still recovering from shoulder surgery, so he must have spent 40 hours clearing, cutting and stacking firewood for us and a neighbor with health issues. With Valinda's health issues and my crazy work hours, he "manned up" years ago to do whatever was needed whenever it was needed. I really don't consider us great parents, just lucky to have a great bunch of kids. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
