Rain Rain Go Away

On Tuesday, we were taking in water. I was afraid the river flowing down our backyard into our house was going to sink our ship. So the boys and I went out to bail water. It was all fun and games until Daniel squiggied muddy water into James' face. Or until James fell into a sink hole and couldn't get out. Or until James stepped into a smaller muddy sink hole and lost his shoe. Or until both boys were shivering uncontrollably from the cold and wetness that I abandoned ship long enough to strip them down and stick them in the warm tub.

But now everything is dry and we have that experience to look back on and laugh about now...it wasn't funny at the moment.
