when the rain comes down

There was a bit of reading, playing with the toys and a fun, loooong game of hide-and-go-seek in the house yesterday on account of the rain we had ALL day long. But there was also a bit of the girls just staring out the window to watch it come down. Sofia commented on how everything looked and explained it to Olivia...

Olivia, my Little Miss Curiosity, thought it was all too enchanting and ran to the window to gaze out more than a few times...she was in awe.

Sofia wondered about her toys that were left out in the rain from over the weekend and how they were doing now all soaked and sitting in mud puddles. She worried especially about her pink soccer ball which she could see from the window and went to check on it from time to time.

There was a lot of much-needed relaxing going on yesterday. While I had been dreading staying in after all the yucky weather we've already had, it turned out to be a really nice day. Comfy clothes, a mess all over the floors, a blissful kind of day. Thank you rain.
