Basketball and Porch Lights
I always tell my kids not to play the basketball near the house. I am always worried about them breaking a window. A window can be very expensive to fix so I make sure they play far out in the yard. When my boys play too close to the house I am always scolding them.
Today, I decided to toss the ball around with the kids. I didn’t play far enough away from the house, so guess what happened? I broke the porch light. Breaking the porch light was bad enough, but then we all had to pile into the car to make an unscheduled trip to pick up a new bulb. Ouch! Maybe I should listen to my own advice to the boys.
