Aye, Matey!


Daddy & Jaykob had the opportunity to attend the Lowe’s free “How-To” clinic one Saturday.  Jaykob was so excited to spend the morning with his Daddy and their mission was to build a Pirate Ship.  It was a bonding day for the two of them as Jaykob took several whacks with the hammer into the starboard side of the ship.  It did not take very long for Jayk’s little arm to run out of juice & Daddy had to take over with the hammer. The two returned home about an hour later with a new pint-sized carpenter’s apron, protective eye wear, a certificate of achievement (for the wanna-be carpenter) but above all else a wee little pirate ship, complete with a Jolly Roger flag.  Like father, like son--my little carpenter duo!

In all of the busyness of life, I am so proud of parents who have time - make time - for life's priorities. That's a "jolly grandpa" flag to you. Thank God for the opportunities not to make a living - but to make a life! Hunting season is coming on... I miss my son and the times we shared together. But grateful for all we have in the Lord.
