The "Dirt"box

This is our sandbox... of sorts.

We started out digging a hole in the yard to put in a sandbox for the kids and ended up getting distracted by all the other home improvement projects this summer. Basically, we marked out a rectangle but never dug anything deep enough to fill with sand. But the kids don't seem to mind. In fact, they don't seem to notice the difference at all. They just dig and play in the "dirt"box as if it had sand.

Which leads us to think - maybe we should just let the kids dig out their own sandbox - since they already have the shovels and dump truck.


You know, teach a man to fish and all...

I love it. Why can't adults learn to be so content with what they have.
