I walked around the house and found Papi doing this (mowing and smoking a cigar):
Aaron loves to follow Papi around and do what he does. His shadow.
Aaron is so teachable right now and loves to help. 
The best part is Papi lets Aaron help and loves teaching him. Loves his Little Shadow.
Working together. Bonding.
Angel does this with the other kids, too. So many times when Papi could get the job done much faster and efficient, he takes the time and lets them be a part of the hard work, and lets them rejoice in the end result. And he takes the time to praise them through it all.
I imagine that God does this too with us. He could get the job done without us, but allows us to take part of His work. May our work be well done, so that we will be called His "Good and Faithful servant." (Matt 25:14-30)

So cute! It's great that he spends such quality time with the kids.
And I love the analogy at the end :) so true!
Missed catching up on your family. Mr. Aaron is getting so big!
Hope all is well (and by the looks of your blog and your posts...it is :)
Thank you for the teachable moment. It usually is easier for us just to go ahead and do it... I need to remember to slow down and let the kids help as to teach them more often. Thank you for reminding us that the Lord of the earth does this for us and we should for the ones we love too!!
That is so wonderful to see a father acting as a father should. I love the picture of him smoking a cigar and mowing. Wish we lived closer!
