Spring has Sprung

It rained like crazy this afternoon, creating a four-year old's idea of the best thing in life: P.U.D.D.L.E.S.

After dinner, when it was barely drizzling, we took Anthony outside and let him splash in the puddles. I think he thought Mommy had lost her mind when I walked to the end of the driveway, looked both ways (safety first, you know), and then proceeded to jump into the HUGE puddle in the street in the curve between our house and the neighbor's house. His eyes got all big, and then he just broke out in a huge laugh...and joined me. He splashed, he waded, he kicked...he had a blast.

And when he was done with the puddles, I turned on the hose to clean him off. THIS is Spring. Thank God it's here!
