An Exciting Day
posted by
Our family has been waiting a quite long time for this exciting thing to happen
. Thursday morning Daddy and Matthew left around 7.00 a.m. and went to Lowes to buy a door for our
basement.
We were so excited when we saw them enter the driveway! Then our good friend Mr. Sutphin, who is an excellent carpenter, came and taught us how to put the door in. Although there were a few small mistakes, the door is in the frame and after a little more work, it will be ready for use, which we will all enjoy
.
Thankyou Mr. Sutphin, Dad and Matthew for your perseverance!

Congratulations Mr. Sutphin, Mr. Wilkes and Matthew! It looks like you were able to make the most of some of spring’s first warm days. After working on the mudroom walls downstairs with James, Daniel and Jonathan I’ve realized once again how much preparation goes into the things we usually take for granted–such as walls and doorways. Keep the end in sight!
Kenan you didn’t mention yourself. I remember additional help in screwing and board transportation. I think it came from you. Right? It definitely was a red-letter day for all of us. Thank you for writing about it.
You’re basement is undergoing quite the transformation! I can’t wait to see all the changes some time soon.
Way to cross over this threshhold and enter the door of opportunity hinged on perseverance, sticktuitiveness, and tenacity! Thank you Mr. Sutphin for being a ready and available master key to unlock any potential dead bolts (ends). Keep it up!
