At five o'clock yesterday afternoon, Cubby and Charlie appeared looking like this, giggling conspiratorially* and asking . . .
"Do you know who we are?"
Yes, yes I do. You're the two boys who are trying to KILL THEIR MOTHER WITH THE EXCESSIVE MUD, GOOD LORD.
Back to the bucket pre-rinse.
*They weren't laughing when I made them stand still so I could hose them down outside. Sorry, kids. You want to play in the mud in April? Then you get an outside shower with fifty-degree hose water. Remember that next time you want to wallow.

I guess you could have said, "No, I don't know who you are--try down the road." Wonder what they would have said!
I have hosed my son off when it was really too cold to do so as a deterrent as well.
I thought that's why we have hoses--to wash down the kids after they play outside….
Great story and great picture!
Natural consequences. Love 'em.
Dang, they're cute.
sound fair.
