Boys are mess magnets. Whether they are four or forty, they somehow attract every grass stain, mud puddle, and cranberry juice spill in a three-county area (and for the big boy, an occasional red wine stain as well).
Now I do have to say, Kiddo is pretty well behaved and I run a tight ship around here, but there is just no way he can avoid messes.
I have learned to laugh instead of yell, to grab the camera while I catch my breath and sometimes slowly count to 10. The mess will be cleaned up. The memory will last forever. Sometimes the simple things are the snapshots of life that stick with you forever…
