President Trump greeted an 11-year-old boy who offered to mow the White House lawn Friday morning.

Frank, from Falls Church, Virginia, was granted permission to mow the grass in the Rose Garden with supervision from park service employees.

WATCH:

Frank wrote a letter last month to the White House offering to aid in the grounds-keeping of the President’s residence, an offer that the President could not refuse.

White House press secretary Sarah Sanders announced Wednesday that Frank got the job, and would assist “the grounds-keeping crew here at the White House and will help cut the grass in the Rose Garden.”

Frank eschewed modern technology and used a traditional gas push mower to cut the lawn.

President Trump embraced Frank and told the boy he did a “great job,” according to the White House press pool.

The press pool also reports that Frank’s mowing was excellent, both straight and thorough.
