    That sure looks like a axe ready to hit a leg with her standing without a nice wide stance.

    Glad they are willing, able and learning at a young age. Keep on encouraging them.

    Nice job, Reloader! Love to see posts with the kiddos helping - for every dopey kid that doesn't know an axe from a lug wrench, there's another with a great family network behind them teaching them that even if they don't grow up to make money with their hands, they should at least know how to use them for something other than an Xbox controller.

    He's not big enough to run a saw or splitter yet, but our almost 2 yr grandson just had to help me build the fire and stack the bucket of little sticks I had brought in...he respects the stove when it's hot, says "hot, burn baby". 4671.jpeg 4670.jpeg
