Our New Grass



This year we have grass :) We have always lived tucked in the woods surrounded by trees, dirt and leaves. Never really had grounds to keep in a pretty way. Here we are in our new home and have a huge lawn in the front that we need to take care of. You would think that we'd be fighting over who is going to do it, like we do with the rest of our responsibilities. Well, we are fighting but we fight because we all want to do it (haha). Jim swore he wouldn't want to do it but he keeps hopping on the mower trying to show us how it's done :) And I just knew it would be something I'd love to do from the start because I love being out in the sun for whatever reason, well unless there are bugs attacking my face then you can forget it (haha). We never expected our usually lazy daughter to be anxious to take on this responsibility :))))))) She wants to cut the grass when the grass doesn't need to be cut. And yeah, it's pretty clear why she wants to do it...........haha, who wouldn't want to drive a motor vehicle before you are actually sixteen :))) I get it!!!! I guess we can save on that ATV we were considering (hahahaha)..........but don't tell her (ssssssssshhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!) We can just let her have fun cutting the grass for now :))))))))))))

She is too cute, she looks like a mini-Robin to me. :) Charles cut our grass today, and I love the smell. He keeps hinting about a riding lawn mover... do the wants ever stop? I think I know how God feels. ;P

You inspired me. The day I read this, I took out our rider mower and gave our lawn the first cut of the season! Quite enjoyable, I must say!
