Mentors

Yes that is Luke's truck and he is "working" on it. Dustin showed me this picture that he had taken with his cell phone while they were working in the garage. Lucas found the jacks Dustinhas in the garage and wanted to jack his truck up. Dustin tried to give him the small one but Lucas wasn't fooled - he needed the big one. Then he slid under the truck on a creeper to take a look. The entire time Lucas was under there, he was commenting on the screws under there and what "work" needed to be done. I thought this picture was hysterical!

It has made me think about how important our time is with the boys and what an awesome responsibility we have. They are watching us and listening to us, are we doing what we should be doing? Luke is constantly asking, "why?" And it's great that's he asking although sometimes it also gets a little tiresome. Poor Dustin gets it more than I do because he is with them the most. I guess in a way, you could say that he is Luke's mentor. Luke desperately wants to be like his dad, be with his dad, and do everything that his dad does. It's a big job but I think that we have the right person for the job. Dustin is an awesome dad and it's great to see how much he cares about the boys and how much time he spends with them as well. Dustin and Luke are constantly snickering and laughing about things that I just don't get. They have such fun together. Grant and Luke sure are lucky boys!
