So today is my birthday,

We hold tomorrow in our hands
when we hold our children in our arms.

Fun in the Rain







Last week it rain in almost Biblical proportions. I swear I saw animals marching two by two. Emilee only wanted to go outside to jump in the puddles. I figured once outside with the rain crashing down on her she would immediately run for cover and dart back into the nice warm house. I could not have been more wrong. She loved it. She jumped and laughed with glee as the rain came splashing across her face and she jumped in every puddle with the gusto of an Olympic athlete. Its amazing, as parents we sign our children up for every activity under the sun and a simple thing like a rain storm is what makes them the most happy.
