We got a bit of relief from the rain and we made the most of it. We pulled on our rainboots headed over to Milam's and walked down to the lake. I thought Molly knew hw to splash in puddles, but Milam REALLY knows how to splash in puddles- and showed Molly a thing or two about getting soaked. The kiddos then got a thrill (especially Milam) when they met a man who was fishing and they joined him with their very own fishing poles (sticks!) The man was very nice and patient and showed them all his gear and helped them put "bait" on their poles. After some fishing, we played at the park, where William joined us and had a picnic. At this point, it was dangerously close to nap time.... with a walk home still ahead of us. We tried to load the kids up, but both Molly and Milam wanted to ride in the car, and no one would ride in the stroller. Poor baby Samuel was getting very sleepy, but good ol' Molly just flat out refused to move. So, after slight panic, we loaded up Lisa's car, and took several trips getting all the kids and strollers and cars home. Thank goodness for Lisa! Without her rescue car we would have been stranded! Nothing is EVER easy with kids this age! :)
Milam was a puddle pro!
