Rainy Days and Lessons













I home school Claire during the summer and this summer we've been working on weather and how to dress for it! Well today has been rainy and cool ( wonderful for a change!!) just a nice summer rain , so I went to the closet and got out snow pants, boots, rain coat, umbrella, hats,etc. and we decided on what to wear in the rain.....well you cant dress up and not go outside, well to say the least I wasn't really excited to go out but I'm thrilled I did! When was the last time you jumped in a puddle, or let the rain hit your face, looked at the plants all wet, and smelled the air, and plain just had fun playing in the rain?? Try it you'll be glad you did!





Have a wonderful Rainy Day! Wendy

  1. Love this!! You're right, we tend to hide away from those simple pleasures of childhood, like playing in the puddles. Sometimes it's good to remember to let go a little bit. She looks adorable, too! :-)

  4. I don't mean for this to be sad but your post reminded me of a good friend of mine who was dying of brain cancer when he was 35...about ten years ago. He had four children. One day in the Summer it was pouring rain outside. He told all of the kids to get their bathing suits on, climbed out of his sick bed and put on his own, and they all went out to dance and play in the summer rain. It was beautiful. And so is your day with Claire. My mom's name was Clare just spelled differently...xo Susan
