Winter Wednesday

I'm belatedly joining in with Hazel's Winter Wednesday again.  I don't get to do my post until I get home from work and I should be cooking tea right now but...it can wait.  Unfortunately, I'm not the sort of person who could plan it the night before and quickly post it while eating brekkie.  Although maybe I could work on improving those organisational skills.

One of the things I've always enjoyed about winter is having boys who adore being outside and getting wet.  I maybe haven't enjoyed cleaning them and the clothes later but I have enjoyed watching the amount of fun they've had.  They could spot a puddle from a mile away when they were little and we've never had any strict rules about not getting wet or dirty.



We've had some fantastic rain this week and our usual puddles are appearing in the garden.  Only last winter the boys were still pulling each other through the puddles on their toboggan and I thought it was probably the end of an era but today Michael proved me wrong.








 
How could I not love winter when it's provided so many fun experiences for our family.

My kids love mum too....that section in our yard that is in my post today fills with water every time it rains...and my two older m's have been known to strip down to undies, yes in freezing weather and shovel mud and water into the wheelbarrow, they actually asked this afternoon after school if they could do it....but I was a meanie today and said no...hee hee. I didnt feel like dealing with mud today....
