Near-disaster Laundry Day and My Little Hero

Yesterday after a particularly scourching morning it rained, and in in Uganda when it rains it pours. We had hung about 3 loads of backed up laundry and it would be crispy dry in just about an hour or two. I laid down for a rest and awoke to a heavy rain storm and Shane had headphones on at the computer. Neither of us heard it in time and within minutes it would have been too late to bother rescueing it. When I did get up I looked out to see all the laundry had been removed from the balconey where it was hung.
Now Alan, my 6 year old, who doesn't take naps anymore, usually takes his quiet-time putting around the balconey. He felt rain drops and had removed the 3 loads of laundry by himself! My little hero! He's going to make a fine young man, heh, girls?!
