April Showers

4/22/2014

We FINALLY received rain in El Paso this past weekend. The last time I remember getting any rain was in September after I moved back in preparation for Tim's return from Afghanistan--much too long ago! Addie was enthralled with this water pouring down from the sky, never having played in it before. What's more, it hailed. In El Paso! In April! Addie was determined to "touch" the rain, but had to build up her courage to explore the unknown. She started shivering after a few minutes so I brought her in (kicking and screaming), but she sure enjoyed herself while it lasted!

We forget how magical things like rain are! So cool to see how much joy can come from things that sometimes put a dent in our plans or don't like. :)
