Each morning, Willow and I fill a pitcher and head out to the front porch to water the plants.
We're doing a good job, because the plants look full and healthy (the ferns are recovering from their bout with freezing temperatures this winter when I forgot to bring them in one night).
This morning, Willow helped me fill the pitcher. This was a new event for her.
She's seen water come out of taps before, but apparently not from a spray nozzle.
She peered curiously at the water as it filled the pitcher.
Then SNATCH!
She tried to grab the water.
We both were sprayed.
She kept at it, trying to grab the flowing water.
Then she figured out what was happening with the silvery stuff coming from the nozzle and spread her fingers out under the water.
Her piercing laughs told me how much fun she was having.
This summer, Willow, Che and I are sure to have lots of watery fun.
