a faraway land update

stover mom went to get a haircut and while gone, stover kids and dad played outside.  it wasn't long before stover boy insisted, 'i hear mom's haircut.'  dad said, 'what do you hear?'  stover boy insisted again, 'i hear mom's haircut!  can you hear it buzz, zzz, buzzz?'  stover dad quickly realized that jack was referring to the neighbor's lawnmower!
