Fun with a Puddle

Yesterday we encountered a beautiful afternoon storm which altered our outside play plans. Logan was sweetly napping while Gavin and I were watching the rain fall outside our large, front room window.

Gavin exclaimed, "I know mom! How about we collect rain in a bucket?" I countered his idea with "What if we put on our swimming suits and played in the rain?" "That's a pretty good idea, mom!"

By the time we woke Logan and donned our swimming suits, the rain had all but ceased to our disappointment. The giant puddle in our driveway bend, however quickly caused spirits to rise again.

Somewhere someone first said that a boy is basically moving dirt.

So true, my wise friend. So true.
