I wouldn't be surprised though if Lawson was helping with the tree business as well, as his musical career doesn't seem to be stable enough. Not that it's a bad thing, some people like to switch between different activities and not have to do the same thing every day.<br />Also, maybe some of the younger boys are helping too: the three middle boys must be in their late teens, aren't they?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5387778566526841808.post-55624812019399602642019-01-01T23:30:23.811-06:002019-01-01T23:30:23.811-06:00I think Michael was.I think Michael was.momofchickiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01911441182575183546noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5387778566526841808.post-207814096386897812019-01-01T23:27:48.946-06:002019-01-01T23:27:48.946-06:00I think the "middle" boys (Jackson, Ward...I think the "middle" boys (Jackson, Warden and Isaiah) are slowly starting to help. Jackson will be 17 in February. He's the next boy after Trace. I think Nathan is the one who had the most interest in the tree business out of the older boys. Nathan also has his pilot's license and I know he's been gone for different trainings and things for that in the past.momofchickiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01911441182575183546noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5387778566526841808.post-56204722932788188942019-01-01T20:31:06.409-06:002019-01-01T20:31:06.409-06:00Congratulations Trace!
