They'll be okay, just give them some time to bounce back!

Awwwww.... So much love in his smile. This actually brought a tear ...ok a couple of tears. I L.O.V.E. everything about this post. And I'm pretty sure, they will be ok. Just probably need a little more time to dry out a bit. Thank you for sharing. 🧡

Well Dayum.. I had NO idea. Guess that's what I get for not being on any social media other than here. I am literally laughing out loud at myself. Thank you... I needed that. 🤔🫣😬🙃

Btw I drain the water with those thingies. I don’t know what it’s called. So yeah

Spider plants are tough. They quickly bounce back.

If the leaves turn brown I’m cooked like overtoasted toast

If the soil is still wet tonight/in the morning, then I would potentially repot into new soil to avoid root suffocation/root rot.  
Hypothetically, you could even take some of the soil out bake it so that the moisture is removed and then add the soil back after it’s cooled down obviously. Google/YouTube how to do it but I’ve done it before.
