Handyman

Maybe it's a boy thing. The determination to figure out how things work. The idea that anything is "fixable." The idea that it's absolutely fixable if you have a few tools around.

Or maybe it's just my boy's thing. He definitely takes after his handyman daddy. He spent three hours outside with his dad helping to "fix" the neighbor's truck. And the moment I mentioned that our garbage disposal was broken, he said:

"Let me get my tools!"

Every house needs a handyman (or two) around.
