The afternoon after Alex and Eric returned from Scout Camp, Eric was taking a nap and I was busy doing other things. Alex kept asking us if he could build a fire and we kept saying no. Well, a little later I went out the basement door and this is what I found. Although I was a little irritated that he hadn't listened to me, I was proud of him for wanting to use his camp skills and I thought the fire was pretty cute and harmless. Things changed when it went out a little while later and he started pouring gasoline on it to get it going again. That was the end of the fire!
hahahaha guess he learned well! At least he didnt' start a fire out in the middle of an Arizona desert- my parents wern't very happy to hear from the firemen(not knowing he was out there doing it). Apparently there is just a connection with boys and fire!
ReplyDeleteI've always been a bit of a pyro myself, fire is awesome! That's so neat that you have wildlife in your own backyard, I love nature, and animals, especially little babies.
ReplyDeleteThomas is at that stage, too - he asks, i say no, he does it anyway. i can't wait for him to outgrow it!
