The boy is filling up buckets with water at the moment. The hose he’s using has a multi-flow nozzle on it and all the settings are labeled; for instance ‘shower’ or ‘mist’.
One of the times he started filling up the bucket, he said “I’m going to switch it to ‘slobber’.” I laughed and looked at the setting on the nozzle- which read, as I suspected it would, ‘soaker’. This setting has no pressure behind it and the water just gushes out the end of the nozzle.
He had misread the word and I helped correct him. But afterwards I told him I preferred his original version. He liked that.
Maybe you had to be there…
BTW- He’s on the deck with the hose, I came in the house briefly to write this up. I keep the EEE far from him and water nowadays.
One reply on “I Liked His Version Better”
…make sure ‘slobber’ goes into the dictionary ….
