A Few of Their Favorite Things

You know how little kids like to bring something with them when they leave the house? A favorite stuffed animal, a book, a blanket, perhaps a picture of someone they love? Well, so do my kids. When we went to do a bunch of errands, they wanted to bring just such an item.

Zach chose the cracked sprinkler that Dad 'let' him have. He's taken it everywhere since he got it on Monday (even the bathtub). Josh chose a sprinkler pipe (or something) that Dad also 'let' him have and (all together now) a rock that, frankly, looks a bit like a pile of you-know-what.

They're a sentimental lot, my boys....
