Thunderstorm and Rainpour



Kaitlin went to school today for picture day in a thunderstorm and downpour. It figures that it would be raining hard as she left! She looked so pretty.

Carmen and I went out in the rain in raingear and she loved it. Splashing in puddles and upon seeing the rain going into the sewer that was brown from construction she said, "It's a peanut butter river!" I laughed it was so cute. Plus, she was afraid of a praying mantis and figured out how to not be afraid by herself. I was so proud. She told me a story where she was a praying mantis.

There is something very cathartic stomping puddles in the rain. For some reason, we seem to lose sight of this as we 'grow up' and 'get serious'.

I agree, puddles....ahhh, the memories.

Your girls are so cute. I wish there were rivers of peanutbutter.

Surprise!

Surprise!
Kaitlin and Archie came home with this surprise from the grocery store. Kaitlin REALLY wanted to give them to me. She is very sweet and thoughtful like that (and so is Archie to take her with him and let her do this). Tulips remind me of Seattle a lot. Every spring about two hours north of Seattle, there is a tulip festival we liked to see.
