Last week (Thurs, Friday), we had about 36 hours of straight rain.. hadn't seen anything like it in Victoria yet.. Then on Friday, we headed out for our music class.. I successfully navigated Zoe past the puddles (in her puddle stompers) without her getting too wet. But the same can not be said about after class.. She ran through every puddle she could find and then despite the pouring rain, was determined to go the playground... did I mention deep puddles? Zoe headed straight for the puddles beneath the swings.. just a little at first, then out, then back in a little deeper.. not 5 minutes later she was running through them, the water much higher than her boots.. filling them up.. she'd leave the puddles and I could see the water sloshing out of her boots as she ran around.
I finally had to extricate her from the park, she was getting cold, I was getting wet (she was already way past wet).. as I'm carrying her like a 2x4, she kicks off her boots.. I pick them up, she managed to free a sock.. I got her in the car stripped off the wet, and went back to find the sock. We went to Tiffany's house, borrowed pants and socks.
