One day this summer Josh asked if it was ok for him to “go out and mow.” Of course, I said YES! I was sort of wondering why he thought he needed to ask or why it wouldn’t be ok for him to go mow because it’s his JOB around here to mow the lawn. Next time I’ll know to ask questions because after awhile I realized that I wasn’t hearing the lawn mower. I wasn’t too worried because he probably had to do something to it before mowing – fix a tire, gas it up, etc. Then after a little while longer I realized that I was hearing the tractor. That’s also not uncommon since sometimes one needs the tractor to fix a tire. I didn’t take time to search for pictures or previous posts, but I’ve posted pics before of using the tractor to lift up the 4 wheeler to change a tire and pictures of Josh mowing the lawn with our John Deere riding lawn mower. Anyway. I’ll make this short. I expected him to be mowing the LAWN when he asked if he could go outside and mow. But, when I went out to see exactly what he was doing THIS is what I saw (LOL):

He was mowing the weeds along our field across the road.
Sorry.. I forgot to rotate the picture and I don’t have time to go back and do that now since it’s quite a process. Once a picture has been posted to photobucket it doesn’t take an edit. So, I have to delete it. Go to “my pictures” and make a new copy with a different name and then reupload it photobucket and then to blogger. Since this is only a picture of a mower I won’t take the time to do all of that. I don’t know how big this mower deck it is, but it’s significantly larger than our John Deere riding lawn mower. (LOL).Tater doesn’t know how to run the lawn mower yet, but I could hear him out there pushing his little toy push mower and making his tractor noise. Again, sorry for the sideways picture.
