An Artist at Work

A new friend of mine recently went to see Dr. Jergins for a tooth extraction.

"How did it go?"  I asked her husband.

"Great!" he said enthusiastically.  "My wife was so afraid to go to the dentist, but Dr. Jergins made her so comfortable.  She said it went so well, that she won't be afraid to go to the dentist any more--as long as the dentist is Dr. Jergins."

Before his wife made the visit to Dr. Jergins' Spring Hill office, I had shown her husband the paintings Dr. Jergins did of our children (they're posted below, in our second post).  Then I showed him some plastering work Dr. Jergins had done in our family room.  An artist at work.

In fact, the husband told his wife that she had nothing to worry about.  I'm paraphrasing here, but he basically told her that anyone who has the skill to be so finely detailed, and to take such interest in the projects he takes on, will surely apply those skills to his work.  And, Dr. Jergins does.

He is an artist at work and, thankfully for those of us at his home, he's an artist here too.

Have a wonderful Labor Day weekend!
