You've got to love the childish enjoyment from the "little" things in life  This is perfect and a great read on such a hot morning too. *starts looking for a sprinkler*  BWA I awake to a world I don't want. There is no transition for me. I am in heaven. I am in hell. [This message has been edited by BrokenWingedAngel (07-24-2003 01:29 AM).] |

Gosh, this is so great! It reminded me of when I was little and ran through the sprinkler. Especially the part where the kid holds his head right over it. I used to do that to get a drink and my mother always told me not to drink the sprinkler water (or from straight out of the hose). I always did anyway though.

What a happy sight this projects. Brought back memories of my own children doing this very thing. Betty Lou Hebert |

A very delightful and fun read. Reminded me of when my sister and I were children running through the sprinkler. Dawn |
