You are so sweet to keep coming and supporting everything while getting nothing in return.<br /><br />Boys and mud just go together, don't they? One of my favorite pictures is TWM and a friend covered in mud when they were supposed to be swinging. I never even knew they turned on the water hose. I think they must all know they were formed from the "dust of the earth" and they're all trying to revisit it!Robynn's Ravingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02619286823020924023noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4795026946181152215.post-37290648000609145572009-09-02T21:00:41.930-05:002009-09-02T21:00:41.930-05:00In his defense he was just trying to give you some...In his defense he was just trying to give you some good pictures :)Stephaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16873029956740258055noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4795026946181152215.post-71752225819637210622009-09-02T08:11:23.029-05:002009-09-02T08:11:23.029-05:00Stillness, nobody was stern with him :) I bit my ...Stillness, nobody was stern with him :) I bit my tongue as I saw it for what it was. But he did ruin his shirt, the clay in it isn't coming out at all. And he made us late for his haircut because we had to shower again... I am hoping he does understand that there are logical consequences that follow when get sidetracked.<br /><br />Jackie, thanks :) I was hoping the humor of the situation came through, and yes, such is the life of boys! <br /><br />Liss, I even told the boys how lucky they were precisely because of you :) There jaws dropped when I told them what your water restrictions are and why they exist!Vickyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02595982706357639001noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4795026946181152215.post-32260605861208995592009-09-02T06:57:54.200-05:002009-09-02T06:57:54.200-05:00This is funny.

My kids would be in trouble for using the water rather then getting dirty after a shower.Memories Of Minehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13372908229050942550noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4795026946181152215.post-70225337097912905872009-09-02T06:15:10.449-05:002009-09-02T06:15:10.449-05:00Absolutely precious post about little boys....!!!

Children have to be allowed to remain children and not behave like grown ups who must adhere to all the rules, regulations and guidelines. It's the strictness and sternness that is shown at times, which takes away their innocence and happiness. That must not happen at any cost. Even if the teacher wasn't very good and was harsh, let Nolan know that he did no wrong that would hurt someone and was just being playful and that he IS allowed those liberties!Tranquility Speakshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11973619033004372917noreply@blogger.com
