Rain and Crank=Pure Mess




Harrison is OBSESSED with playing outdoors, which is fine when there's decent weather.We spend hours outside.  But today was one of those yucky days where the weather was less than cooperative for outdoor play.  So instead of staying cooped up inside, I thought we would head over to the local library for some stories and playtime with friends.  He had a blast and I was looking forward to naptime as we pulled in the driveway.  

I literally had to drag him inside while he is wailing at the top of his lungs because he wanted to play in the backyard.  I pulled out all the stops and was so desperate for the prolonged tantrum to stop that I did the unthinkable... I offered for him to play in the sink.  Parenting moment:FAIL. While it did stop the tears, it created the biggest mess.  Water, water everywhere!
