Because sometimes you just need a break

I awoke this morning with high aspirations for a much needed day of rest. We had a week full of play dates, puppet shows, and Pool parties that kept us hoping each day, followed by an exciting vacation bible school that extended way past bedtime each evening.

(pool party at Aunt Patty's. Ethan, Kaleb, Ian, cousin Ryan, cousin Stevie)

The boys however, had other plans. Each tired and cranky, yet none willing to spend the day sitting back to relax. So off we go on an adventure to our front porch, where mud and dirt await.

(Boys will be boys: Ian and Kaleb in green, Ethan in blue all playing in the flower bed )
Once the boys were thoroughly filthy, it was time for us to retreat to the deck out back, where we could rinse off muddy hands and feet before going into the house. One thing lead to another, and the before I knew it, our plans had changed drastically. We were all dripping wet, running around laughing and giggling at the silliness of Playing with the hose water in our regular clothes instead of the typical swim gear. How amazing that something so simple could ease the tension of exhaustion that previously plagued my little darlings!
It is the little moments like these that help me face each day with a smile in my heart, knowing that I truly am blessed beyond measure.
