Here's a story for you about being in the WRONG place at the WRONG time!! The kids and I were at the duck pond on this beautiful day having a great time walking along the edge of the pond talking about ducks and sticks and the water. It happened to rain last night which made the ground soft and muddy in patches around us. Somehow the older two and I managed to steer clear of the mud and to focus on the ducks and finding the best sticks in the park. Here comes the unfortunate part........while I was squatted down next to the double stroller smiling and talking to my two precious little girls, I feel a splatter of mud across my back! OK - where did that come from? My kids were all in front of me? Then I hear a father severely scolding his son. Now I get it - this boy also was facinated with all the sticks & found himself a humdinger which he was poking in the mud behind us. Since my eyes in the back of my head were closed at that moment, I failed to see his stick flicking mud all over the back of me, the diaper bag, baby Eden and the stroller. Whether or not he realized he was doing it only he & His Maker know? I wanted to take the stick and wrap it around his little ........well, the kids were watching me and so all I said was that it was OK and that it would all wash out. I figured he got enough scolding from his papa with an ear pull too! Esther must not have wanted us to feel so bad so later she slipped in the mud after running down some dirt hills and got some pockets full of mud. |
What a memorable day at the park! Now I better go atart some laundry!Comments
