Ignore That

The kids played outside yesterday morning as New Orleans got some blow by winds of TS Eduardo making the normally hot and humid city windy and not so humid. My kids have gotten good at using water as a play item, much like I did when I was a child. The backyard had two hoses and three spigots (why we need that many water spigots? Ask another of the house's owners.), which is awesome when three children all want access to the water.

I, however, had something very important to do inside that probably had something to do with paying bills or blowing all the snot out of my nose. As I said, of the upmost importance. As I watch them out of the windows, I rap to tell them stop that or just make them bring down the squirting a bit. Mrs. H doesn't need that much water in her yard.

Larien comes in the back door to ask for a squirt bottle. I give it to her. As she leaves, she says, "Just ignore all the yelling. It's only us having fun."
