Few things evoke quite as much as manliness as getting out the maul and splitting some fire wood, as my guys did recently. Great memories for a mom. :)
After Tim had shown the boys how to swing an ax a few times, he let them try by themselves. I'm afraid we couldn't stay warm through the winter on what Christopher and John split, but they sure tried hard.
Cruel lesson of being a lumberjack:
He who splits the wood must carry the wood.
