"A Little Bit of Water in my Boot"

We had rain in the desert this morning! It was wonderful to see. We only see rain about three or four times a year. Because of our rain, we had some standing water out in the street. The house across from us sits a little lower, so there is always a collection of water in the driveway. Well, our kids love to ride their bikes and scooters through it. We were all outside enjoying the 65 degree day. Alex had left his scooter in the huge puddle, and I had asked Luke if he wanted to ride the scooter back across the street. He ran over to get the scooter, and of course, he started riding it around in the puddle. Edward and I sat there taking bets on how quickly he'd fall. He fell right away into the puddle and soaked himself. We couldn't stop laughing, and what made it even funnier was without a word, he stood up, got back onto the scooter, and started riding again. He rode for another couple of minutes in circles, until he finally brought the scooter back to the garage (I think we were still laughing). He walked up to us and said to Edward, "Daddy, I got a little bit of water in my boot," has he stood there dripping from the water. It was hilarious, and aside from "water in the boots," he wasn't bothered. Oh, and these are his "upgraded" cowboy boots. He outgrew the last pair. This pair used to belong to Madison, but there's no telling how long this pair will last with as hard as Luke is on things.

Dripping wet, although hard to see. Luke is ALL boy. My laundry and list of items broken in my house prove it.

And, here's another one. He's definitely all boy too. He's soaked from the knees down too.
