He Waited All Day....


Just to hold her. I can't believe the amount of dirt that Jack and Thatcher attract when they play outside. We have these huge fir trees behind our house....big enough for them to play under and now they've begun climbing them. So, not only are they covered in dirt now they are covered in SAP! They came in to eat lunch today and were caked in mud since it rained like mad all night last night! Thatcher knows he has to wash his hands before he can touch Margaret, so he rushes in to the sink and then waves his WET hands in my face and wants to hold her. What he doesn't realize is that he's muddy, wet, covered in sap and it's actually hot and humid today, soooo he's dripping SWEAT! (And dirty little boys smell like wet dogs!!!) No way was he going to touch this sweet smelling girl!! So, I told him he couldn't hold her until he'd had a bath! Well, he didn't forget after his bath tonight. It was his first order of business!! He couldn't put on his pajamas fast enough!
It makes me sad to think that this picture might be shown in one of their graduation videos or even a wedding video one day. So, I won't think about that yet. I'll just revel in the moment!
