At first, I could be heard telling them that they were not allowed to splash anyone else, get their pants wet or let their boots get filled with water. Awful, I know.
This was all until Ethan crashed and fell face down in the water. Before I could fully absorb what had just happened (and stop laughing), kids were yanking off their rain boots, bikes and scooters were sliding sideways through the water sending rooster tails in all directions and entire outfits were being soaked completely. It was great!
And we laughed and kept yelling to Parker do it again to see how big he could splash while peeling out on his little brother's tricycle. When all was said and done, all their soaked clothes were thrown into the wash and hot showers were happily received.
The best part was that my sweeties had a blast and it was reestablished once again that I am the best Mommy ever. I guess that's what they mean by: when life gives you lemons{rain}, make lemonade{happy children}!
