A Rainy Day

Also known as "Be Extra Creative" Day or "Take 18 Blurry Pictures" Day or "How Many Ways Can One Child be Cranky" Day or my all-time favorite "PBS Kids, I Love You" Day.  I decided pretty early this morning (and, yes, it was early, because that's what time you wake up when you have a child who refuses to eat supper) to make some play dough.  I came across this link on Pinterest a couple of weeks ago and thought today would be a good day to try it.  You may now proceed to the blurry, under-lit photo section of this post.

Making the dough was very easy.  Kneading it was very fun.  Completely over-taken with joy sure that Little Man would love this, I beckoned him into the living room.  If Little Man could speak in complete sentences, I'm pretty sure this is what he would have said:

What is it?

Do I have to touch it?

But, my hands are getting dirty!

Am I allowed to throw this?

Can I just stand here and look at it?

If it's so great, why don't you do it?

Maybe it's not so bad...

Hmmm...

I really don't want this on my hands!

Please take this away!

I would like to go now.

It's looking at me!

If I can't see you, then you're not there!

Today's saving grace: the leaves are changing colors!
