Having children, raising them in as God-fearing a manner as one deems necessary (or is able), and preparing them for their own flight out in the wide world, does not necessarily mean that you can come to the point where you no longer have to care for them! I spent the last few days of last week, late into the night, helping my son to get his ailing auto operational again. Tonight I again got a call-out, this time from my daughter when her "Tjorrie" decided it no longer had need of its alternator belt. Thankfully, a spare belt, just long enough, had been lazing around in the peaceful mess in my garage. A dash through the night-lit streets, hazards flashing madly, I arrived where she sat calmly awaiting the arrival of her 'Pappy'. A few minutes work, and she was ready to go again - with Mom n Dad much relieved.
