L:Brackish Water

L: Brackish Water-“No! Don’t get in that water Tesla!”  A little pool of water remained after the creek flooded.  The water was dark as oil and appeared just as slick.  Tesla halted suddenly at the edge, aware of how icky the water actually was.  “That’s disgusting Mommy!” she squealed in delight, proud of the fact she knew what disgusting meant.  “Yes, it is.” I replied, thrilled she didn’t stomp through it like other rain puddles she can’t seem to avoid.
