Precious Moments: "I LOVE getting muddy, Mama!"

With all the beautifully sunny weather we've been having lately, we've been spending lots of time outside.  Alas, my children think 73/74 degrees is hot... *sigh*. 

Brandon came up to me one day and said, "Mama, can I get muddy?"  Sunny day + water + sand box = priceless fun.  Of course I said yes.  The wide smile and "Thank you, Mama! I LOVE getting muddy." made the cringing in my head at all the extra laundry coming up in the next couple months rather insignificant.

I got out of there soon after, fearing for the cleanly safety of my camera.  They were pretty covered in mud by the end of the afternoon and their smiles were as wide as they could get.
