The Conversation:

Mommy: Hi Ella…

Child: Mommy, why you got a tear in your eye?

Mommy: I dunno…I am just having a little bit of a hard day…

Child: Are you Sad?

Mommy: (looking out the window into backyard) No, I am not sad…

Child: Is that tear just cuz you wanna play in the sprinklers?

Summer is sweetly passing along…and we are welcoming a fresh new season of our lives in this new home. The sprinkler joy has just begun. The sod came yesterday…the sprinklers are working (good job Jason), and the girls have claimed their backyard…finally! (Now you try to tell these little girls they need to keep off it for 7-10 days)!

Such FUN! I love that you let them do it in their clothes. When else are we free spirited enough to run thru the sprinklers in our clothes than 3 years old?

Hi Tonya: I think some of my best childhood memories are of playing in the sprinklers. What great therapy water can be!! Next, you’ll have to get a swing…that works wonders too!
Love ya!

sprinklers and bubbles cure just about everything. :) and really, i don’t think your girls weigh enough to do an ounce of harm to that sod (plus their cuteness would make up for any funky patches of lawn).
