Mowing Grandpa's lawn!

Tyson and Grandpa
He still needs LOTS of help!

My dad has been teaching Evan how to mow the lawn for some time now. Last summer he called him up and Evan would go mow the lawn with Grandpa. Well all the hard work has paid off! He can now mow the lawn (kinda). He can't reach the pedals so he just puts it in second gear and goes really slow. My dad says that he can run faster than the lawn mower just in case he needs help. Evan isn't heavy enough to weigh the seat down so he has to put something heavy on the back of the seat. If you get off the seat the lawn mower will automatically shut off. Evan is so proud of himself for being able to mow the lawn without Grandpa on the lawnmower with him!
