Stopped for a visit 🧚‍♀️
    if something was due 🌻
            we took a moment  🐞
              to leave a sprinkle or two💦

Well Jojo fell into the pool the other day. I was in it so it wasn't an issue - I simply snagged her collar and directed her towards the stairs. I'm not even sure how she fell in - I wasn't watching. Rylee was doing his usual and dropping his toy into the pool - I picked it out and left it on the deck on the far side of the pool. I turned to walk to the stairs pointing to the toy for Rylee and Jojo - the next thing I knew - splash - Jojo was swimming. On the plus side it was one of our very hot days and surprise dip definitely cooled her off. Really it's not bad - halfway through the summer before she took her first plunge this year. Happy Thursday.

Another head hangs lowly
Child is slowly taken
And the violence caused such silence
Who are we mistaken?
But you see, it's not me
It's not my family
In your head, in your head, they are fighting
With their tanks and their bombs
And their bombs and their guns
In your head, in your head, they are crying
In your head, in your head
Zombie, zombie, zombie-ie-ie
