An Hour of Peace

1. Go outside
2. Turn on the water
3. Fill up the holes with water
4. Get soaking wet so mom takes off your clothes
5. "Wash" clothes in water hole

This scene can be viewed in our backyard just about any given late afternoon. Usually it happens while I am fixing dinner. Sometimes it waits until after dinner. Other times it happens right after awakening from a nap or when I'm trying to leave without him for one reason or another.

I can not remember the last day that has gone by this summer when this boy has not ended up outside watering the lawn. He's going to make such a good landscaper someday.
