I have been Banned from Watering the Trees

I have been banned from watering the trees.

Why you may ask?

Because I forgot to water them for the last week and it has been 100+ degrees outside.

What happened is that I am not the one that usually waters the trees – Elsy’s dad is. The thing is though that Elsy’s dad went to California for a week and I was supposed to water the trees – but I forgot.

He came home to two trees that had lost the majority of their leaves. The only remaining leaves were brown and dead.

In my defenses it was a very busy week helping my wife take care of the 3 kids (I even took the week off from work to help her since her mom was not there to help her) so I was busy there. Also, this is the first house that we have ever had that does not have automatic sprinklers so I am not used to having to water.

Anyway, Elsy’s dad is now nursing the trees back to life (thank God they didn’t die completely!).
