Kids & Water...


What is it with kids and water? Saturday afternoon, I am out in the backyard with the girls. They are in their bathing suits, and wanted to play with the hose. So I let them. What harm can they do, right? Ha, I should have known better with Ava.

They were done playing with the hose, so I thought, so I went in to get Ava a diaper. We are still working on potty training. In the short time I was gone, my little Ava took the hose, and sprayed into the house. I come down to a table soaked with water, all of my machines are wet, everything is soaked! I am flipping out! Patterns, fabrics, I am having heart failure. It was all I could do not to flip out on her, so I sent her & Emma to play on the swings, while I cleaned up the monsoon. This was really not funny at the time. I wiped down all 3 of my sewing machines, put my patterns in the sun to dry and mopped up the floor. Thankfully all of my machines work. I let them dry for a few hours. I would have died if they didn't. Lesson learned, no more hose period! How was your weekend, lol?
