I know the old saying April showers bring May flowers, but we're going on day four of rain. I really like rain...you know the warm summer rain that cools everything off and makes the world smell fresh and new. Yep. I like that kind of rain.
But the past several days have been full of the cold-to-your-bones, where-in-the-name-of-heaven-did-Spring-go kind of rain. I'm not so fond of that type of rain. Not at all.
So until the clouds part, we occupy ourselves with:
-new (to me) Spring sheets in blues and greens on the bed
- sharing blueberry pancakes for breakfast with a friend
-a game (or seven) of UNO. No cheatin' boys!
-wondering how this bit of the outside came to rest on our windowsill inside
-thinking about how good the rain is for the newly planted strawberries
-watching the birds and smile knowing at least some of us are enjoying it (can you spot her?)
-dreaming up new projects, even though there are at least twenty that need to be finished first.
Tomorrow is supposed to be sunnier. Thank goodness! The boys are climbing the walls...literally.
