McGuiver?

Wow, do I feel old.


27 years ago today ,guess where I was?














That's right ,I was in the hospital having a darling dimple faced baby.

















He was the 2 year old who would fix someone’s toilet while we were visiting their house.The 5 year old who set fire to a tree.












Once when he was 5 the school bus dropped him off before I made it home. I was horrified and worried sick. What did I find when I arrived home? He had broken into the house and was sitting at the table ,calmly eating cereal.














He could open a motel door with a credit card by age 6.









He’s the kid who blew up the backyard with a lighter and hairspray.(we all hid behind the couch in the dark ,when the fire department came)



















He’s the kid who cut his fingertips off with a meat cleaver. But….he’s also the one who taught himself to sew at 15,and can reupholster a car ,made his girlfriends prom dress once and just taped up the flowers for his brothers wedding and made a train out of a lawn mower.






He does back flips while wake boarding .

He's been making mom a nervous wreck since 1982.

He still makes things and amazes everyone with his creativity.
