- mowing the lawn

Last week, my son was tasked with mowing our lawn for the first time this season.  The grass growth pretty much shuts around October and starts up again around April.  He was glad for the break over the winter, but was also eager to get back to work.

When we moved to Indiana my son was given the responsibility of mowing and has thoroughly enjoyed it.  I also have to admit that I thoroughly enjoy watching him, the sense of pride he emanates is a reward in itself.
