I found that when your kids get around 25 you get smarter and life gets a little easier. Only 18 years to go

Dead on CORRECT!!!:laughing:

Right before hand did he yell "HERE DAD CATCH"!

Or did he look at his mother and say, "Hey, watch this!"

My middle boy is 5, new tractor has 11 Hrs on it, he's been on it with me for 10.8 hrs of that. Not real useful yet but you take the good w/ the bad. Now you'll have a good mark and a story.:laughing:

You guys have SONS to raise up and teach to to be independent men.Having daughtered out ( not that my daughters are anything to discount) you guys should just hush and count your blessings. And learn to duck.

Never really gets easier - ours are both 13 and one of them clubs me with something about every other time they are "helping" - the sad thing is after a while you start to get used to it.

Hey my boy is 24 years old and is a grown man in all respects........I still have to duck, side step and juke and jive when he's around to help....

Enjoy every minute, headaches, stitches, bruises and all (I've had a few including a broken collar bone). It will not be long until they are engineers, artists and fashion designers out on their own in far flung places. I sometimes miss the days when they were little guys and WANTED to help daddy with the latest project. Sure they slowed me down back then, now I wish they were here slowing me down now.

When he is a teenager you will look back on this event and yearn for the days of being hit in the head with a piece of oak. At least now, while a hurts a bit, you can probably sleep at night just fine. But wait until he 16 with his brand new drivers license and he is supposed to be home at 11:00 pm and wanders in about 1 in the morning. No call, even though he can't be 2 feet away from his cell phone. As a parent, we don't sleep until they are home safely.

So, I say, enjoy the head wound. It only gets worse.
