This Friday night, if your little girl dresses like a princess and you go to the West County Mall Chickfila, each princess gets a free child’s meal with the purchase of a value meal. There’s going to be crafts and fun for her too!
“What about my son?” you ask. Apparently there will be shields to make and other paraphernalia for your little prince.
What a great opportunity for a Father/Daughter date!!! (Since you Kirk women will be partying over ice cream and competing at Game Night, right?)
What does that have to do with anything? Well, remember this picture? It was taken on a day when Bubba and Little played in the water on their new slide and got wet and filthy and LOVED IT. Today I went out to clean that same slide so I can list it on Craigslist (we haven’t taken it out all summer – someone else can enjoy it, right?). I got the water hose so I could spray the slide, had all three kiddos out with me so they could enjoy the beautiful weather (run, swing, go play), grabbed a few rags and went to work.
I hooked up the hose, got the pool for a soft landing, made the conscious decision to let them get filthy (they will wash, for pete’s sake) and let the kiddos go. It was SO MUCH FUN!
They did get filthy but I stripped ’em down in the basement and everyone jumped in the tub for a continuation of the water party. I was drenched as well and speckled with dirt and grime. Even at such an “old” age I’m “evolving”!!!
weird.
The thing is, I was reading a blog yesterday. The blog is written by a girl I knew in another lifetime in Georgia. On her blog is a link. . . to a friend of mine in AUSTRALIA! Also, there’s a link to a girl I knew from that same lifetime in Georgia but haven’t even thought of in years (I didn’t know her well). I go to said girl’s blog and can read up on her entire life. She was sharing a deep thought (spiritual in nature) and all of a sudden I thought, “Blogging is weird.”
Kinda like Facebook is weird. But that’s another post. . .
