  • Brian Kelly is just 5 years old, but he's developed a love for yard work, something he and his dad used to do together all the time. After his dad, an Air Force captain, was deployed, Brian had to find a new partner. Steve Hartman went "On the Road" to find out what happened next.

    My situation was different growing up. My dad just didn't give a damn and my parents divorced. I had a friend whose father was more of a father to me than my dad every was and I still think of him often. It is important for any kid to have someone in their life who cares about them and is there for them. Even if their father is away serving and still loves his son.

    Dang that is awesome. I remember times going out and helping my mom with the yard then when the day came that she passed the lawn mowing on to me I thought "Man she said she would never allow anyone to touch her mower." Not even my older brother got to touch it. Sadly she has passed on now. I wish that kid was my neighbor. I could use the motivation.
