The Rain is falling all around, it rains on fields and trees......The rain is falling all around,It rains on fields and trees, It rains on the umbrellas here, And on the ships at sea! AND it rains on our heads, and our stroller and our library books.... We wanted to head out to the library today, but the weather forecast predicted thundershowers for the morning. We decided to go AFTER the showers passed, so we waited.... and waited.... and waited. The sky was beautiful blue with wisps of fluffy white clouds. Not a rain drop in sight, and the warm air was enticing! Finally, at 2pm we decided to make the 20 min walk down to the library - seems like the rain wasn't coming after all. Half way there and we saw one of the biggest bolts of lightening I've ever seen in my life, followed imediatly by a deffening thunder clap.... and with no preamble the rain began to pour out of the sky. There was nowhere to duck, and no where to hide. Within seconds we were drenched to the skin! Should we continue on, or turn back? The children voted to continue, so we hurried on towards the library. As we slipped into the doors we made wet tracks directly to the bathroom to wring out our hair and clothes. What a giggle we all had! The warm air insured that we were not chilly and we dried off fairly quickly. It's always an adventure! My 4 year old daughter picked out her 5 books - 4 of which had to do with puddles and rain. What a wonderful way to learn! ![]() ![]() Leave a Comment { Last Page } { Page 27 of 470 } { Next Page } |
