At one point during the whole process, Sepporah said to me:
"Dad, look at me"
I turned to see my daughter with my mechanics gloves on, waving her hands in front of her saying in her deepest voice "Im Chris Johnson, I work on cars."
This has been a new thing with her. She did it the other day when I was giving a pitching lesson too. She put my hat and sunglasses on and started saying " Im Chris Johnson. I give pitching lessons."
I laugh pretty hard when she does it, and it makes me so proud that she got my sarcastic sense of humor. Anyways, I wished I had my camera yesterday, cause when it came time to change the oil, Sepporah got underneath the car with me and helped me out by handing me tools and playing with the oil. Dont worry mom and grandma, i made sure the car was on jacks and still had the floor jack underneath it in case anything happend. So you can both start breathing again now.
After it was all done, sepporah was dirty from head to toe, but so happy. She had helped her daddy change the oil and redo the breaks. Its moments like that, that I will cherish forever. Sepporah loves to help me and takes an interest in everything I do.

I am so glad you gave me and mom the information we needed to be able to enjoy that story......yikes.
I don't know anything Sepporah ISN'T interested in, except sitting still.
Christopher, you should have had a movie camera to capture the whole thing. What a wonderful story!! You are making memories that are priceless.
And, I sure am glad you made doubly sure the car couldn't fall on you and Sepporah.
Love you and give Sepporah a hug for GG.
I forgot to put my name in. Anonymous is me.
Grandma
Great story. I wish I could have been there. Also, thanks for including the info about the safety precautions you made. As I was reading I could hear mom in my head giving you the business for letting the Midge get under the car.
By the way...Mary needs new brakes put on. I need to learn. Can you teach me father of Yoda?
I might be coming down next weekend to play in a baseball tourney in columbus....if you can find a place that has a garage with lights, i could do them when i get down there. Let me know.
I love Sepporah. She is sunshine.
