these are the moments......


I will treasure forever......

Stomping in the giant and deeep puddle at the end of our drive way. For days we have stomped until we are soaked. Smiled, laughed about it and hung our boots upside down to dry so we can do it all over again the next day.

Reasons to try Puddling Stomping:

1. It's free.

2. For fresh air.

3. Vitamin D.

4. Good exercise

5. Family bonding.

6. Language building skills. (words the Spout now says are puddle, deep, big, icy, cars, out, in, hop, boots, bus and done)

7. Road safety teachable moment.

8. For the memory of spending a few moments (or hours like us!) where nothing else matters. Dinner will get made, the laundry will eventually get put away but the puddle will only be there so long. (and my little boy will only be little so long too!) These are the moments I will cherish forever.

What family activity do you love?

Loooove it!! Cubby has several pair of rubber boots....just for that very thing! We all love to take walks together and watch the Pittsburgh Penguins play hockey.

We haven't done any puddle stomping yet this spring; it should be coming soon.

You've been in my thoughts considering you inspired me to venture down the lane of Polymer! Wish us luck this weekend!!
