They have been doing construction on the shopping center for the last few months. As we rounded the corner we noticed a brand new in ground misting sprinkler! The kids faces lit up and they squeeled with delight! They had such a fun time! I heard a few older women talking as they walked by saying, "Can you believe their mother let them wear their clothes & shoes in the sprinkler!? Unbelievable!" I could only smile and bask in the Joy my children were experiencing! (It was so worth having wet clothes and shoes!)
After getting soaked, I took them for ice cream at a new ice cream place we have never tried before. Sometimes it is the unplanned moments that are the most memorable and purely perfect. What a day!

Hey Dayna,
I have just found your blog, as I was looking for more information on unschooling, and have gone right back to the beginning of your posts (it seemed the sensible thing to do). I love that joy is the most important thing to you - what are wet clothes and shoes when compared to happiness? I also love that Abbie is wearing different coloured Crocs. And are those Cold Stone Creamery ice creams I spy? Aren't they so yummy?
