Oh boy!!!

On Wednesday morning I woke up and started making breakfast. I heard what sounded like water running downstairs. When I walked into the basement my feet got soaked. Our basement had flooded ahhhh. My first thought was "one of the kids left the water running in the sink" But I found that it was coming from the washer. After further investigation we found that the culprit was the hose, it had a hole in it. We moved everything (thankfully it only hit one room) so we moved everything into the other. Kevin sucked up as much water as he could with his shop vac but we had to call someone. ARS came and took the padding underneath, sucked up as much water as they could and put fans down. Now normally in this situation I would be upset and cranky about it, but after watching what my children did in this situation I figure I once again need to become as a child. They:
1. Laughed when their feet would squeak on the floor after being wet
2. Made a puppet show behind the mattresses that we put in the living room.
3. Watched enthusiastically as the carpet move up and down from the fans.
Hopefully our basement will be back to normal by Saturday. As for now I'm off to do my puppet show!
