Child #3 dug a hole in our garden, all by himself. I was warned that it was a deep hole and I needed to keep an eye on the kids while they were playing around it. But honestly, how deep can a 5 1/2 year old dig with a five foot shovel? Until I saw a little blond head disappear down the hole, much like Alice in Wonderland, and her big brother running toward the house in a mad panic. Yes, Child #5 was stuck in the hole and needed rescuing.
