Diversion September 20, 2012, at 9:35 pm | I’ve been scrambling for activities that will keep Jimmy independently entertained for more than a few minutes while I tend to Danny, and I hit upon a winner: Dishwashing. This child LOVES to swish a sponge around in soapy water!
The only problem is, when I’ve left him happily sudsing up the sink while I run upstairs for a minute, I always come downstairs to find a trail of water…everywhere. Jimmy takes the sponge with him when he leaves his dishwashing post, squeezing all the water out as he toddles on his way. So I end up having to change his wet clothes and mop up the floors in his aftermath.
So the jury’s still out as to whether this diversion is worth it…but at least it makes him happy for now!

ABOUT US I'm blessed to be saved by the grace of God, loved by my wonderful husband Jim, and embraced by my twin girls, Rebecca Faith and Susanna Joy and my sons Jimmy and Danny. I started this blog in May 2008 when I was hospitalized for pre-term labor at 24 weeks gestation. The Lord allowed me to keep the girls inside until they were 34 weeks along, and on July 27th, Rebecca made her debut, followed by Susanna, five minutes later, on July 28th. We ecstatically welcomed Jimmy into our lives on April 25th, 2011, and Danny on August 31, 2012. This blog has been a personal journal of faith and motherhood and the only way I can remember which child did what and when. Thanks for stopping by to share in my Faith and Joy!
