Water, Water Everywhere


A few years ago, my family and I had just finished eating at Friday's when we saw sprinklers going as we walked to the car. It was a summer night, and every kid wants to go running through sprinklers on a summer night. It doesn't matter where they are. I was so tempted, but I didn't want to ask because I thought she would say no. I jokingly mentioned that it would be fun, and to my surprise, she said, "Do you want to run through them?" Of course I did, but it was in front of Friday's, not at home. Then she said, "Let's do it." I thought she was kidding, but she started walking toward them. So there we were running through the sprinklers in front of a restaurant at night in the middle of summer. Then we piled into the car and drove home soaking wet. I loved every minute of it and learned that it was ok to be a kid sometimes in the process.
