Viggo thought he was very clever today. He found a way to get our lawn mowed and get free fertilizer without doing any work. We had eight cows inside our fence all day. Both of our closest neighbors have cows, and they were ecstatic when we offered to have the cows come eat our grass. Our guard, who otherwise would have spent much of his day cutting our lawn with a scythe, instead spent much of his day keeping the cows from eating our flowers. Daniel was thoroughly entertained both by the cows and by the neighbor kids who came to help ‘watch’ the cows (the guard had to keep telling them to get the cows away from the flowers because they were too busy playing on our swings…).

How cool! I love the fact that right then the kids (including Daniel) are standing there watching the cow eat. It is a fine thing to be easily amused :-)
It is so nice when one can accrue so many benefits with a single decision: the neighbors are happy,
the guard doesn't have to mow, you get free fertilizer, and Daniel has a great experience.
Cool, very multi purpose. Fun that it brought the neighbor kids over to your swings.
