Part of the priviledge of becoming 9 in our home is that you get your own pocket knife. Each birthday brings some kind of new responsibility. Some are wanted, and some are dreaded. Carter thought getting his own knife to whittle and carve with was great, but wanted to know what else he "earned" by becoming 9 (as in what will he have to start doing that he doesn't already do- like laundry at 8). Jeremy and I are still thinking this one over and are leaning towards lawn mowing when summer rolls around. We told Carter that his new responsibility might be mowing the lawn this summer and he was excited about it. This can only be because he hasn't done it yet...
