MUD

So yesterday I was faced with a Mama choice. It was about 4:15 the boys were up from their naps and we needed to be out the door by 5 o'clock at the latest. It was a beautiful afternoon and the boys wanted to play in the back yard. Well we went out back and they played for a bit. At that point Henry came and asked me if he could water our trees and bushes. I told him yes, but to be very careful not to get wet, or to get his brother wet. The next thing I knew Henry was in my garden with the hose and Thomas was on his way to join in the fun. I took a deep breath and thought. I can freak out and drag them both inside right now, or I can let them be boys, be a little late because with this case baths will surely be necessary, and grab the camera.

Well as you can see, I chose the second option.



As you can see they had a blast. Yes, it took me forever to get all the mud off of them and their clothing. Yes, we were almost 45 minutes late leaving the house. Yes, I may never get all the dirt out of my bathtub. Yes, I had to change my clothing as well.

But most importantly Yes, they had fun!
