My friends wrinkles....



Most of us bloggers know Kathy T. as a great writer! She is in her second year doing her wrinkle series and I, myself find it very interesting. Kathy T. has a way with words and when she writes about someone for her series it makes most of us sit back and realize how others have grown up and lived their lives. Today she wrote for her series about a true and good friend that most of us know as Gunner. Gunner works and goes to school while most of us just work. He loves the learning process and I feel he thinks its never too late to learn something new. I am very happy to have a good friend like Gunner.

Gunner was raised by a handicapped mother who was born without a right arm and with a deformed right leg that was amputated when she was seven or eight years old. His mother was strong-willed out of necessity rather than choice. They always joked that his mom could do everything except knit and chase him when he misbehaved. He quickly learned, though, that he’d have to return home sooner or later and face the punishment she doled out. When he stopped running, knitting became her only handicap.
