Water Gun Fight

Aim it that way, Mikey!

Mikey knew how to fire a water gun, but he didn’t know how to fill the water guns, and he was less than strategic in a water gun fight. Enter Will and his pal A. They helped Mikey learn on this beautiful summer day.

Typical kids are excellent teachers because they choose much more fun curriculum topics than boring old mom. Must know for middle schoolers? How to participate in a water gun fight.

What a lucky kid to have a big brother like Will who has a buddy like A. They were both always unfailingly kind and accepting with Mikey. They both care about him and want him to be happy. We appreciate you, boys!
