Monkey See Monkey Do

It is so true that children copy what they see others around them doing. It is sooo cute sometimes and other times a little bit of an awakening to things in your life that you need to change. This is one of those cute times...

Yesterday I mowed our lawn for the first time... D normally handles that area but he has been working a ton and it really needed it and it was supposed to (and actually did) rain today. So I thought I would help him out in his arena for a change. Evie slept for most of it and then at the end she was awake but playing in her bed so I was able to get done without having to worry about keeping her away from the mower. Afterwards she played with her mower and helped me sweep some of the grass off our driveway and sidewalk - I am clearly not a professional! So today D was doing the maintenance on the mower and Evie thought she should do some on hers and then later helped Daddy with his :)

This would be a perfect Father's Day card pic don't you think?
