Our Workin' Boy

Daniel wants to get to work first thing in the morning. If I am still in bed when he wakes up (which is often the case as he likes to get up around 6:15AM) he runs over to our room and yells, "One, Two, Wake Up Mommy!" Sometimes I can get him to lay in bed with me until I can move and feel like heaving myself out of bed but then it is full speed ahead.

Just like his daddy, he is a very hard worker. He puts on his "work shoes" (brown leather just like Daddy and Pop Pop wear to work) and wants to get to work. Usually the first thing he wants to do is mow the lawn. He pretends that his little tractor (which looks just like my dad's) can actually cut the grass and takes it very seriously.
He'll stop mowing to work in the garden, pull weeds, or dig in the back where he says he is going to build me a house.
If there is activity on the new houses going up all around us, we'll sometimes stop to watch the diggers but then it is back to work.
If Pop Pop or Daddy are working at home he'll often want to sit next to them and work on his computer too. I just think he is adorable!
