Wordless Wednesday ~ Child Labor

Warren Leaves

Warren took it upon himself to help Daddy rake leaves and by golly, I was impressed. Got to love child labor!

    LOL I personally love child labor too! My daughter will definitely be thinking that too when I put her to work cleaning her messy MESSY room! LOL

    The funny thing is that he was probably loving it, right? I love that my kids like to help right now. I love that the rake is 2 times as big as him, lol.

    Lol. I have semi fond memories of raking the yard as a child. This picture is super cute. Thanks for sharing.

    Poor kid is probably STILL out there raking. :) I loved raking leaves until I realized I was being conned into free labor. Enjoy it until he has the same awakening. :)

    ha ha! This is the first year our daughter (2yrs) has wanted to help pick up leaves/walnuts and it’s been awesome! I encourage her all the way. She’s got determination too. One day she picked up a whole 5 gallon bucket of walnuts loving every minute of it. LOL!!

    Lol! The rake is 2 of him!
    Happy WW!

    Oh my, that is so cute. What a hard little worker.

    Now that is a great idea. I have 4 kids and by giving them each a rake I think our yard will be leave free in no time. Maybe.

    Teach them early:-)

    He doesn’t look very happy about that. Five bucks says he’s thinking, “I’m SO wetting the bed tonight.” LMBO

    How cute is your little helper : ) I love child labor! : ) Oh yes I do!

  22. 22

    I love it when they take it upon themselves to help out!

    Very cute!! :)

  23. 23

    Hmm…I’m confused. Are you telling me that child labor is not OK?

    I am totally going to have to rethink my approach to parenting. :)

    Too cute! I love them at this age when they’re so eager to help and explore new things! Teach him young and hopefully he’ll be helping just as eagerly later! =)

    Warren is so cute. That’s really a fun phto. I was a bit shocked with the title. Good thing, it was not literally what it is. Thanks for sharing this cool photo.

    LOL! That is cute! Our little helper has to get out there with his little rake every time Andy rakes but then he just jumps in the leaves!

    How darn cute is this.. wait til he is 15 and you won’t be able to get him out in the yard…at least with a rake.

    lol Too cute! I just took pics of my kids a couple of days ago raking the leaves. They ASKED me if they could do it and had a great time gathering them up.
