slip 'n slide


Have you ever been here?

I am raw from the experience.
Seven hours of:
Dripping wet.
Lots of sun.
Bare feet.
And an eight-year-old.
With autism.

Nonstop up & down.
Back & forth.
Over & under.

Bless his little heart,
but I am worn out.

You gave this little person a memory forever of a great day with a wonderful, kind person. Definitely worth it!
