Rain Dance

We live in the convergence zone and always get rained on.  No- we don't have the most rainfall in the country, but we do manage to top the list of the most rainy days per year.  Usually on a rainy day with a house full of kids, we keep busy with extra crafts or manipulatives.  Not on this day.

In hushed tones, they just stood there.  Some were happy to hold the umbrella, others looked at me as though I were the mean stepmother.

One boy decided to aim for the tiny puddle.

Then it just started pouring buckets!

We were already soaked, might as well go barefoot!  Look at her smile!

Suddenly, I was no longer the mean stepmother.  When the rain stopped, the kids whined,"Oh, I want it to rain agaaaaiiinnnnn..."

"This is the day that the Lord has made, let us rejoice and be glad." ♥ (Name that verse?)
