David started school again this week and has been very busy :( So he has not had time to mow the lawn. I kept telling him I would do it, but just have not felt like it. So this morning he kind of had that tone of "well I guess I will have to mow the lawn." I took that as a personal jab, so I got to work. But it is not about the mowing the lawn that I am writing about, I told Cait that I was going to go out and mow the lawn and this is what the response was:
Cait: Girls don't mow the lawn?
Me: Girls can mow the lawn if we want to.
Cait: That is a daddy job, you're not supposed to do that, you'll get dirty.
Me: Girls can get dirty, and we do a better job anyway.
Cait: That's just weird?
What is up with that? I suppose that since Cait can remember, I have not mowed the lawn, so it just isn't a girl thing to do. I hope she gets over that.
But a side note to me, I had the front and back lawn mowed, the flower garden weeded and the roses trimmed in less than an hour this morning. Yeah for me.

At least you have a lawn to mow!!!!
Just to even things out...my kids get very confused on the rare occasion that I vacuum. Scott's the carpets guy...enough so that Beth refers to the machine as "Daddy's vac."
