Exchange

Last Monday I planned to weed the garden while the minis were napping, Lynnlee was at preschool, and James was at school. That left Kaden who I thought would be easily entertained outside. He wanted to come in the garden with me but I didn't want him to get dusty or muddy. He didn't want to do anything in the back yard. He only wanted to play in the cul-de-sac but I couldn't see him from the garden so that was not an option. He saw the water table in our shed. I was desperate and so in 60 degree weather he filled up the water table and played for an hour while I weeded. Oh the things kids can get us to agree to in exchange to be able to get something else done. It was worth it though. The weather was bad the rest of the week.
