One More Good-Bye
This is how much I will be missed. We had a big Sidewalk “Splash” event today. One kid showed up. Fifty dollars worth of food. A couple dozen water guns. One huge tub. The staff — and the kid — had a blast. At one point they all ganged up on me and I went from dry to wet in under three seconds. It was fun. Would have been more fun with a couple of kids to drown.
Oh well — there’s a reason we don’t have Sidewalk in the summer — besides the heat — it’s too dang hard to find kids. The family ships them off to Mexico for Granny daycare. As far as endings go, this one was very understated.

Well, guess the important thing is you had fun! I bet that kid will have loads to brag about come the beginning of school…hehe.
Quilly, enjoy your last few days of desert heat. A quiet Sunday school may be good counterpoint to the insanity of the last days of the other school.
*squirts her gun right at Quilly and runs away*
The rest of the kids were just too sad to come say good-bye again. Luckily it was still fun.
at least this one was fun!
One is all it takes to have a party! She will brag and brag about the entire event….you made a difference in that child’s lfe more than you will ever know. 🙂
At least you got wet.
