My Man

A couple of weeks ago Justin began the project of digging out a tree stump in our back yard. We need it out to help with landscaping the dirt patch. It was a far larger stump then I think either of us realized. He started one night after work, but didn't get much further than that couple of hours of work because it rained the rest of the week.

With all of the soil he had stirred up a robin came hunting for worms. This poor robin also started seeing his reflection in my windows. This caused him to repeatedly run into my windows day after day. They became filthy and he became known as the "naughty" bird by Natalie. I was annoyed.

Thankfully Justin was able to take care of the "naughty" bird, and my windows are once again clean. He also spent 3 hours on Saturday finishing up the removal of the huge tree stump.

He is such a hard worker and doesn't stop until the job gets done. He was also kind enough to put off digging out the tree stump to go and help some people move, and humor me by going with me to some yard sales. He does so much for others and is an example to me.

I listened to Sis. Burton's talk from General Conference this weekend and hope that Justin and I too can follow the proverb she shared, “Thee lift me and I’ll lift thee, and we’ll ascend together." Justin truly does lift me by the way he lives and show love to me, Natalie and others.
