A Tale of Two Boys

After mowing the lawn--my usual lunch-time ritual on work-from-home-Fridays--Aaron and I watered the vegetable garden. After we finished, Aaron told me to spray him, or something like that. I refused, on account of him being in street clothes in the beginning of spring in Western Oregon. He disappeared shortly thereafter, but returned just as quick, dressed only in swim trunks. So I proceeded to spray him using all seven modes on the hose attachment. Interestingly, this is the child who doesn't like to bathe.

Contrastingly, Edward always requests that we put on his winter coat whenever he heads to the back yard to play, and he had no interest in getting hosed down. Yet he's the child who tries to negotiate a daily shower or bath.
