A simple oil change turned into a huge project the day before David and the kids needed to leave for a conference in Missouri. The oil filter had seized and refused to come off even after being ripped apart - all the way to the metal plate holding it to the engine block.
How many 15 year old daughters do you know who would climb under the family mini-van when her dad was away at work so dad wouldn't have to when he got home?
I know of one - Katrina.
And besides that, she did laundry, ironing, cleaned the house and made dinner the same day.
Later that night, Caleb crawled under the hood and held a screwdriver while David hammered away until an improperly installed oil filter finally loosened.
