What is it with boys and mud? Coop spent literally 2 hours pretending he was the mud monster. He got filthy, caked in mud, and loved every second of it. And really, so did I. That's what kids do right? Clothes can be washed, kids can take baths, and that is what a kid's life should be. Full of fun, dirt, and imagination. I'm grateful for days like this where I can watch Cooper enjoy being a care-free kid and feel myself let go a little. It reminds me about what really matters. Not material things, but the people and experiences we have that make our life happy.
I will say that I did quite enjoy hosing him off after all this...
Today was a good day :-)
