The Blessing of Work

We have been so blessed.

This summer our boys have been very busy...they have had so many opportunities to work.  They have spent their summer working hard on several projects.  To name a few:  lawn mowing, catering, pulling out carpet, weeding, yard clean-up, garden-tending, and pet-tending.  They have been able to pay for all their summer activities, all their school clothes, all their back-to-school needs.  This has been a huge blessing for them and for us.  They have learned how to work and have been able to understand the value of work.  They are careful how they spend their hard-earned money.  Money is tight for us and having them be able to pay for their needs has really helped us as well.  Shooting gear is also very expensive and they have both earned enough to pay for their own new shooting clothing for this coming year.    I am grateful that they have been given so many opportunities to work, it has been such a blessing for our family.
