Handy Man

My dad can really do anything. He's some kind of self seeking superman or something. He is a hard worker who loves to learn new things and "do" stuff. He wakes up every morning with a mission to complete. He is NEVER satisfied with just doing nothing. He always has some type of project going on. For example, he liked the way stained glass look so... he took a class, bought a machine and can do it. He found some old furniture at my grandparents house and thought it could look like a gem, so, he took a class on refinishing furniture. He is always fixing something- somewhere. So when my mom told him that Lawson needed a swing for his birthday.......... he kinda went over board a bit.


Yeah, that's a fort complete with rock climbing wall and rope, slide (it's on the backside), glider, two swings, trapeze bar, steering wheel and beautiful blue tin roof. Lawson needed a swing... yeah. Poor little boy. So he started building this "swing" in Tupelo and word spread to my Papaw and of course he got involved. Mom and Mamaw would help, watch, or tell them how to build it every night. Two trailers later, it was brought three hours south for Lawson to enjoy! Which he does. I tell you what, everybody should have a loving, devoted, daddy and Papa like Lawson and I do. We are lucky.
