The kids perch themselves in front of the window whenever there is a rainstorm. And just as soon as there is enough water to cause a stream they demand paper sailboats. It’s a tradition their dad started a few years back. Like weather chasers they watch, waiting for the current.
Today we had a paper sailboat rain storm. First one we’ve had during working hours where Spence hasn’t been around to make the boat. And as it turns out, I haven’t a clue how to make paper sailboats. So I grabbed a little toy boat out of the tub toys and we set out to sail in the rainstorm. Not as good as a paper sailboat, but not half bad either.

Such fun pictures!
ReplyDeleteIt's interesting to me how much I avoid the puddles, when my kids actively search them out and bound into them. Kids are so much more fun than I am ;)
Just for the future. You might want to practice first.
