I’m such a mean mother.
We were enjoying a nice summer evening outside, watching Paul mow the grass. Pablo was playing with the hose, using it to clean sidewalk chalk off the bricks, when all of a sudden he lifted the hose and sprayed water in Kayley’s direction. She let out a shriek, which he found to be hysterically funny, so he got up and CHASED HER across the patio with the hose, completely drenching her with water.
This was about the funniest thing I think I’d ever seen. Something about seeing a 4-year-old chasing a 12-year-old, laughing like a maniac the whole time, just cracked my shit up. I couldn’t stop laughing. Kayley was THRILLED by this! She gave me a big bear hug before she went inside for a shower!

What a great summer visual! (And here I thought from the post title it was a call to membership in the mean moms club! For which I surely qualify…;) )
Happy almost weekend! (Wishing you more bear hugs)

Isn’t it the best, seeing the older siblings having so much fun with the younger ones? J is the bomb with my little itty bitties. he absolutely adores them. He did tell me it might be a LONG time before I see grandchildren from him (if ever LOL). Last night he played with L for ages and today he was being goofy with Baby A. Cracks me up. He sure has changed from a year ago…
