We had several miscarriages and honestly I think of them as much as the one I had to bury. It’s especially had on our women. Yours is lucky to have someone like you who “gets it”. Edit: and still understands his job to defend his family.
That pain never ends does it?
Good grief Slice, you and Red have been through it man. Shes gotta be tough as nails like my wife is. Fwiw I envy you man. I saw where you said since you sold the old company, you were working with your sons doing additions, remodels, etc? I would love to spend everyday building with my kids...to have a chance to teach them what I know. My FIL was a lifelong contractor as well and my wife saw how his knees, back etc were shot by 55 or 60...and Ive had 2 back surgeries myself from work...so we really pushed ours to go the college route and not work a trade. I envy you being able to work with your boys though and be around them all the time like that. Selfishly I would give anything just to have all that time with my kids everyday. I am sure there is some stress and worry too that goes along with it, but it seems like you have been quite successful which means you have a great reputation, repeat loyal business, and likely lots of work. My FIL was the same. In 30 plus years he never spent a dime on advertising, but was able to stay busy because he did good work and always treated customers in a selfless and God pleasing way. Even the difficult ones. I am happy for you and your family bud. I think youre a couple years older than me, you have grandkids yet?
