The Mud Streak

We have 3 children and when they were younger the boys would play football in the backyard with their friends.  I remember looking out one afternoon at the patch of mud running the length of the yard and getting frustrated about the destruction of our beautiful grass.

I then came across a great quote that I keep handy when dealing with our little lovebirds.  One day the wife looks out at the backyard and says to the husband, "did you see what the boys did to the grass?"

The husband smiles looks at his wife lovingly and says,  remember honey we're raising boys not grass"

Love that quote.  The boys are older, they don't play football in the back yard any more and guess what, the grass has grown back to a lush green. 

We have to remember they are only kids once, let them play, let them romp, let them have fun, let them enjoy.

Boy, I do miss that mud streak. 

With Love,
