breaking and entering



I love it! It sounds SO much like something I would do, but I would have
managed to break my baby toe something so every move was painful. Reminds
me of the time my son, (in the enrichment programme), and his other
enrichment buddy built a raft, they were like in grade three. So the went
out on the pond, and were having a great time, till they realized they had
no stick, or paddle, and had no way back to shore.

Great story!  Keep 'em coming!
