Having been a journeyman lineman my wife's dad impressed the hell out of me. He could build or fix anything. Not many people alive who can do that anymore

You know you had tough women when they churned butter looked after animals & cooked meals on a farm like I did. Only ever got butter from a store so I was lucky

When my mom said to my wife my son needs a strong woman we both laughed because we both knew my wife was carved out of granite like many of the women in the family. Hard & soft as any child would ever need
