Baby J. is the only one of our children that
we had as an infant. When he was about eight or
nine months old, he'd get really excited
whenever Jon came into the room.
He'd squeal, bounce up and down, crawl himself
over to wherever Jon was.
Recently, Baby J. took a trip to the toy store to spend
some birthday money. He walked with Jon through the aisles,
saw all sorts of toys. He didn't get too excited
about his choices until he saw a lawn mower.
With glee, he declared "Just like Daddy's."
The lawn mower was the only toy he wanted.
He couldn't be talked into anything else.
Proudly he came home with his new mower, and
then he begged Jon to mow the lawn, so he could help.
Yet another reason I love my husband, Jon took the time
to let Baby J. "help" him mow the lawn.
Needless to say, we have one very thrilled
four year old who LOVES to mow the lawn
"Just like Daddy."
