Evan woke from his nap on Saturday ready to help Daddy in the yard. Of course putting pants on was not an option. Pat was digging a new garden at the foot of the driveway. Because the area was covered in gravel the area had to be excavated several feet before the top soil could be added. So armed with his Elmo underwear and his purple beach shovel Evan climbed in to the hole to help daddy.
Once he tired of digging, Daddy sent him to water the garden. A job he loved. I mean what could be better than watering the garden in your underwear on a hot day? The one problem with his watering technique is that he forgets to move the hose. So if he's not reminded, one little basil plant will get several gallons of water and the thirsty zucchini plant will get nothing. And because he is stubborn, sometimes a gentle reminder to move the hose on to the next plant is met with a loud "NO!"; which illicits a threat to turn off the water, which in turn gets him to happily move on to the next plant. He's learning though...
