This year as we pulled into the community sprinkler park (FREE!) Rachael and Abi started squealing from the back seat. A smile hit my face… maybe this year will be more interactive. A flashback of last year’s “we don’t do water” instantly looked brighter.<\/p>\n

I had to do all I could to keep Abi from running across the street straight to the sprinklers. Rachael jumped in place, her patience and obedience displayed, while I got all our stuff from the car\/applied sunblock. (Funny how much goes into a morning of water play.)<\/p>\n

We circled the sprinkler pad a few times, soaking it all in. And then Abi let go of my hand and Ms. Assertive was off…<\/p>\n

Rachael, Ms. Precautions, close behind her in a moment of boldness. <\/p>\n

<\/a><\/a><\/a><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n
\u00a0JUMP!<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

I love how no matter where we are, they just love playing together.<\/p>\n

\u00a0There also was a park attached to the sprinkler pad so we could dry off with joy on the slide. =)<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n
\u00a0This time Rachael was the assertive one.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
<\/a><\/div>\n
\u00a0But this one didn’t need a personal invitation. \ud83d\ude09<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
<\/a><\/div>\n
\u00a0Ms. Big Sister took it upon her own initiative to make sure Abi’s first trip down the slide was fun and secure. (Precious to watch her care for her little sister.)<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
<\/a><\/div>\n
\u00a0Then Abi decided it would be fun to ride on Rachael’s lap.\u00a0<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
<\/a><\/div>\n
Sweet sisters. <\/div>\n
