Damn that Cup

It has been a few days since this specific event occurred but I have found that life with a child always brings unexpected events. Your time is no longer your own and even though you created a "To Do" List for the day it might actually take several days to complete it. That being said......Just the other day Everlee had her friend Stella over to play in the pool. The girls were busy bouncing back and forth between the BIG pool and the dumping dirt into the blow-up pool. After several minutes in the pool Everlee became focused on a cup. A single "Stackers" cup. This specific cup is used to play a game called "speed stackers" (something like that). Everlee proceeded to take yet another random cup and try to fill the "Stackers" cup up with water. She was very intent on completing this task. What she didn't know was the "Stackers" cup has holes at the bottom. No matter how much water she poured in, it would never fill to the top. We watched her for several minutes, loving her determination, trying not to laugh. She wanted that cup to fill so badly. It was so funny to watch because she never knew the cup had holes at the bottom. (I'm laughing now) Finally, Everlee gave up, picked up the "Stackers" cup, and threw it into the pool as if to say, "Damn Cup!"
