Singin' in the Rain

Our weekend continued... After we got back from Great Falls, the rain started -- a downpour! Emma was just dying to go jump in the puddles, so we let her put on her rainboots and winter coat (it was chilly) and she went out. We thought she would only be out for a few minutes. Instead, she was out for (no joke) almost 1 full hour. In that hour, she got soaking wet, came in and changed into her snow pants on her own, and went back out. I was with her for some of the time -- she jumped as hard as she could in the puddles, swinged on the swings in our backyard, rode her scooter, got out her watering can, and one time, I literally found her lying in a big puddle, as if she was swimming. Alexa, on the other hand, went out for 5 min, got her hand wet, and came back inside. She wanted none of it.
