Weeds and Trees

Yesterday Kit Kat drove us home from our tennis outing. The neighbor from across the street came over and asked if Little Kat wanted to make some money. Now you should know that Little Kat is saving up to buy a laptop. Unfortunately he just bought a big Nerf gun and ammo vest for $63. So you know he is looking for extra cash.

I sent Little Kat over with our hand saw. He seemed to start out doing some weeding. But then he was pulling out trees. He brought home a bamboo shoot that was taller than him (we want to plant some bamboo in the back yard). By the time Kit Kat finished cooking us up some macaroni and cheese casserole, I went to find Little Kat. He and the neighbor were sawing down trees in her front yard.

Little Kat came back to report that he made some cash. He also said our neighbor might have a spare laptop sitting around the house. That sounded strange. I did applaud Little Kat for doing a lot of manual labor just after we spent the afternoon playing tennis. Little Kat might just bulk up and be a Big Kat some day.
