To worry about today as I watch him jump in the puddles.
As if getting his jeans wet wasn’t a concern for him.
The freedom of getting so high with his jump and coming down was a thrill.
As the fun things in his life were a lot smaller than the list of things I had to get done were.
So getting dirty to have a moment of joy was worth it.
For he can always go home and throw them in the washing machine and call it a day.
