This morning when I woke up and heard the rain, I immediately thought of our plans for the day: trip to the grocery store and more shopping and then our annual trip to see Christmas lights. Oh how depressing. Why does it have to rain today?
When Little Buddy woke up and heard the rain, he was tickled to death. "What a great day! Can we go out before breakfast?" "Hurry, Mama, grab our rain boots and lets go out and do some puddle jumping." Of course, my reply was we had to eat breakfast first. GAH - surely all mothers agree. Right?
Immediately after breakfast, before the table was properly cleared mind you, Little Buddy had his rain boots on and his jacket in his arms. "Come on, Mama. We have a lot to do today." "Just look at all of those great puddles."
So, being the terrific mother that I am, I doned my rain boots and jacket and headed out the door with him. I have to admit, he was right. What a great day!
Puddle jumping is fun ~ although I can't imagine not having snow everywhere right now LOL
ReplyDeleteThat second puddle looks like a little river :-)
