Mr. Handyman

Tonight I was upstairs talking to my parents on the phone when I heard tools clanking and a lot of banging. In my house, that can be a really scary sound! I came downstairs to find the sofa turned upside down and Josh was hard at work fixing several springs that came loose from underneath. He removed the staples that were supposed to be holding them and used screws instead. He did a great job repairing it. Josh is actually quite handy. He just seems to have a natural ability to build and repair things. He’s taken several construction type classes at school. I should have known that he was going to be mechanical. After all, when he was just 5 years old, he found a screw driver and removed the doorknob from his bedroom door just so he could “see how it worked”.
