Leaves, Leaves and More Leaves

Yesterday was a nice day. My mom's brother lives a four houses away from her. He has a bulging disk in his back and is unable to do anything...he spends his days in bed. My poor uncle...so, we decided to help him by getting his leaves off his yard.
This is his house before we picked up the leaves.
And this is afterwards.
And this is the backyard...and my mom using her lawn mower and "cyclone." My job was to use the leaf blower to blow the leaves from the edges onto the grass so that Mom could pick them up.
And this is afterward...it looks so nice.
After the "cyclone" was full, mom would dump it in the back of the garden. The pile was very large...and here I am sitting on top of it.

Your mom is always serving!! She is a great example. I can't even count how many times she mowed the grass and leaves for my mom without even hesitating! I want to be more like her.

Great job! I didn't know he wasn't doing very well. That's great that you were able to help your mom!
