Seems like only yesterday I use to sleep in with my kiddo after a commercial early AM job. Alex was always a good sleeper.
Then him tagging along on a job or 2 just for the hell of it.

Now today he taller than I at 6'1".

And this summer will be wanding with me in order to earn more money for his 1st car. After this summer I have no question he will want to maintain his honor role pace. However we have a lead on a relatives car, Acura TL 2008ish with like 50k miles and my thought having earned it he will respect it.

Guys dating back to the early ICS, Cleanfax, Blue board recall his birth, in fact we got a nice reception of flowers.

Time sure does fly... That's awesome making him work for the car... I had to work in the business for whatever I wanted since I was 13yo... It made me appreciate the things I bought...

Congrats on the young Man helping/earning his living early.

My daughter has no interest in earning good money with me. Couch won't fit in my Chevy anyway. LOL

She is honor student as well.

Time does fly, I remember your son being a little guy like a stair tool.

You're not kidding they grow up so fast, in a blink of an eye there are no longer little.

My son will be 25-years old tomorrow, at 6-2 he towers over me.

I don't feel old until I realize I met his mom when I was his age.

The time flies by because these dam kids take up every second! 2.5 and six months, both boys and crazy.

Really makes you feel like your mentally inadequate!

Example: Going to change(diaper) on my older son a while back. He's not happy thinks I'm putting him to bed. Has a total fit, kicking, yelling, bla-bla.
Get him on the changing table. Take his cloth off, then the diaper... He looks right at me smiles and pisses all over the walls and me...

All my younguns, including the girls, have helped me on the truck. I'm glad they now have better things to do. But I've got grand kids in the pipeline.

My sons 19 and works part time while going to school, my customers are often impressed I'm able to get him to work at all!

I say that's the way I was raised so I'm not expecting less!

Besides I'm not killing it 6 days a week while I raise a professional gamer.

Don,

It's great to hear your son is starting to be involved. My kids are pretty much running the business. I am taking a back seat to them to see how well they can handle it. So far they are doing an awesome job. We are growing and it's nice to see the great futures they have ahead of them. I wish I had the start they did at 19.
