In order to alleviate the battle that usually follows the "we are leaving in five minutes" announcement, I promised to let my two boys throw rocks into the river for 15 minutes before leaving. Gavin ran to the river followed by Grant and a friend, Jack. While Gavin was giving Jack pointers on the proper wind up to gain distance and Grant was grunting with each rock thinking it would help with distance, Callie saw us from the playground. She ran over and began throwing rocks into the river as well, apparently assuming this would put her in the club, or possibly just to see what all the hype was about. After about 4 good throws, she looked at me with a rock in her hand and said, "Why are we doing this again?" I just laughed and said, "because they're boys, sweetie." She dropped her rock and skipped off, obviously catching on pretty quickly to the MDHA symptom and wanting to steer clear of it, lest it be contagious and rock-throwing actually become entertaining. <BR/>4)attraction to mud and water puddles - like magnetic pull to the North - it can't be avoided.Angie @ KEEP BELIEVINGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00930977696454848345noreply@blogger.com
