Who's the adult here?


Today, I got to take care of three little people whom I adore for the morning. And by "take care," I mean get them to bake me cookies (that actually turned out really well!), eat way too much cookie dough, jump on my roommate's bed (it's way cooler than mine), pose in all kinds of ridiculous pictures, play horse with me on the playground, and have a water fight in the middle of my kitchen. (Note: this was a very, very bad idea. I sprayed them with the sink sprayer thinking this was cute and funny and a good way to get them to stop tickling me--and then the 4-year-old ran over and slipped on the wet floor and screamed for about 5 minutes. While she was screaming, the boys grabbed the sprayer and sprayed us both, and the result was a very large puddle all over the floor, me getting way wetter than the children, and a screaming child who kept repeating, "It's your fault, Sarah, it's your fault." Oops.)

Seriously, though, this is the best of summer. I am excited about the school year starting but sad that these opportunities for ridiculous silliness will be diminished!
