"...let him labor,

working with his hands what is good..." Ephesians 4:28

I remember my Grandpa Pete's hands. They were rough and calloused. His fingers seemed permanently curved to hold a hammer. He was a carpenter. One of his nails was always that deep shade of purple that comes from mishap.

Surferman's hands show how hard he works. Rough and calloused, but because he works on cars, they are also black with grease. His fingers seem permanently curved to hold a wrench. His knuckles are forever tore up from putting his big hand in small areas.

Surferman like my Grandpa Pete was built to work... built for hard work.

Please pray with me that he'll be back to working full time soon.

I'm off to offer Surferman a very manly manicure.

Just two rules:
You can't say anything negative about your husband . . . to your husband . . . or to anyone else, about your husband.
Say something that you admire or appreciate about your husband. . . to your husband . . . and to someone else, about your husband!
