how should i go about doing this

[thompsonlawncare]

my wife and i r having a baby and its due in 3 weeks and i was wondering if someone has had this come up
i mean when she calles and says she is in labor i cant really tell her i will be there in 3 hours when i get all the work done .
my uncle has been working for me and prety much knows the ropes and what to do on all the yard
should i just tell him that when she calles he can finish up the other alone
i am also going to tell my customers that i will be havin a baby in the next 3 week so they know that i might not be there and also to let them know that someone will come and mow

i was just wondering what anyone else has done

any help would be great
thanks

last year my wife was due on june 10. i was going to let every one know with the june 1 invoices. i got the call on may 19. you will never be ready so just forget about it. any plans you may have will be out the door when she calls. it will not fit in your schedule so don't try. The only thing i had set up was 3 freids of mine who owne lawn care businesses were going to cover me. It turned out they were too bussy to help, and i did most of it myself. good luck, and hope mom and the baby are healthy.

just to give him a call

i got 5 kids, 26, 24, 20, 18 and 2. i saw the 2 yr. olds birth and went to all my wifes drs. appt. , even blood work. you drop what you are doing and go . you will be glad you did. don't worry about your cuts. they ain't going nowhere. i missed the first 4 cause all i did was work. work ain't everything. good luck!!!!!!
