Our water plant had a huge pipe bust last weekend and we're under a water ban. We have barely enough water pressure for the toilet to fill back up after it's flushed and every time I get in for a shower I debate whether it's even worth the time it's going to take to wash my hair as it takes
forever to rinse when there is only a trickle or two coming out. Anyway, with that said....this
may or
may not have happened today (which is the first day of
summer break by the way!!!!)...
But, If it did happen, it would have gone like this...
ME: Coby, can you stand by daddy's car and make sure no one is driving by while I water the flowers real quick.
Coby: Are you going to be under arrest? Daddy is a police officer, is he going to take you to jail?
ME: No, I would just get a ticket. But these flowers really need to be watered or they'll die.
Coby loves flowers so with that said, he was all in! However, he nervously asked me every five seconds, Are you done yet mommy? Are you about done?

Just remember, this may or may not have happened at all. Certainly I would never subject my child to helping me water the flowers while we are under a water ban. No, I would never do that. That would be wrong, very wrong. Plus, I am a rule follower and expect my kids to be as well...unless my flowers are at risk that is.
Maybe.

Ohhhh, I remember when Darren first became a police officer, and you were telling me how no matter who it was he'd give the person a ticket (for speeding or whatever). Hmmmm, I'm thinking Mr.Heath should go out there and see if the ground is wet and act appropriately :)
Right when we moved in to our house, one of the first plants I planted was a hydrangea bush. Oh how I look forward to it's beautiful blooms every year. This year it looked as though I'd have more blooms than ever. Then the hail storm did a number on my house. My hydrangea bush was one of it's casualties. It looks like someone took a weed-eater to it. I am so sad. I am jealous of any house with beautiful blooming plants. So, water on, my friend. I won't tell.
