What the heck was I thinking?
Maybe I was trying to out spoil my husband and his Arctic Soaker squirt guns. For some reason on Monday afternoon I thought it would be a good idea to buy the kids one of these:
When I picked it up off the shelf at Target (aka: my home away from home) the kids actually started to whoop and holler. They even danced a little.
Now I’m thinking I might have a bit of a masochistic streak in me.
Sure the kids have worn themselves out so much they are sacked out by 6:30 every night, but I’m a muddy, sunburned mess. And my lawn will never be the same.
Still…shhhh…it’s a secret but those whoops and hollers made me feel like The Man.©
I am officially the Best Mom Ever! Not bad for under 40 bucks!
