"help Daddy"

The Shrimp loved helping Daddy - pushing a lawn mower (especially one that's not loud and "scary") is so much fun! 
I loved this too - watching those two together always warms my heart and I love that he idolizes his Daddy. Also, we've come to accept that a divide and conquer strategy works best with our two kids at the moment - having the Shrimp outside ensured that Buddy would stay asleep inside and I could get some stuff done. Win. Win. Win.
Terry loved it too! I won't speak for him but I'm pretty sure that the fact he was already finished with the lawn was a big bonus. Toddlers like to help but they aren't always helpful...
Train them young! I will never have to do yard work if we keep having boys and that sounds pretty awesome to me!
