Mowing the Lawn

We finally went and bought a lawnmower that works, since the one the landlord left leaks gas, sends out blue sparks, and won't shut off unless it feels like it. And that's when the pull cord doesn't stick!

Dan hopped up this morning to watch Tim mow. This is the first time in his memory that he's seen a lawnmower in action. He was IMPRESSED. The lawn was knee-high in some places, so it was a dramatic change.

First he said, "Dad's making pools for us to play in!"

Then he said, "Dad's shaving the grass!"

He ran from window to window watching and yelling, "Hi, Dad!"

It was all very exciting.
