I'm pretty sure this would be classified as child labor, but it isn't forced. He wanted to try mowing the lawn and we weren't going to turn down a willing mower! He mowed most of the front lawn, did a great job, and was very excited about getting paid for it.
He had a hard time not leaving strips and tufts of long grass in between rows, but got much better as he went along. We have worked out a deal...$3 for the front lawn with tufts, $4 for the front lawn with just a few tufts, and $5 for the front lawn with no tufts.

Man your nice! I don't pay my slaves. ;)
Wow that's pretty good. I'm not sure Elisabeth would be skilled(or strong and tall)enough to mow the lawn. Charlie's not too much younger than her so maybe in a couple of years we'll have ourselves a mower too :). Elisabeth will be a good babysitter though.
