Dax's Journal

Water Bottles

So Michelle normally picks up Dax from daycare. But not this past Monday because I only worked a half day. When I showed up, I expected Dax to run into my arms happily screaming and shrieking my name. Nope. He came running around the corner and stopped in his tracks with a perplexed look on his face when he saw me. So much for that.

After the pickup, we did a few errands and picked up a couple bottles of water 'cause it was a *temperate* 100 degrees out. While we're driving around, Dax usually has this habit of drinking water and burbling it out of his mouth and onto his shirt and car seat. I was so proud when he didn't do it this time. I could hear him taking his sips and drinking water like a normal little kid.

Then, after a few moments of silence, I heard him start to scream: "RAIN!! RAIN!!"

I emit a big SIGH.

I turned my head back and there's Dax, with his legs kicking up and down, shaking the water bottle very much like a race car driver with a bottle of champagne after a win.

Yup...it "rained" in the back of my vehicle.
