It's Raining Again!

So... the other day I was so excited about the summer and the sun... and what goes and happens?!?! RAIN. Rain. rain. r.a.i.n... I am so done with this weather... and what do they say for the weekend? You got it... more of the wet stuff... Right now it seems more like tears falling from the sky... it is depressing, it is gray, it is getting to me....

BUT... every once in awhile you see something that makes you think the rain will go away, and the sun will return! Why not just enjoy other things until the sun is ready to shine...

Case in point: This morning Jolie squealed from the back seat of the car pointing at the sky screaming "The SUN mommy, I can see the sun!!!". I glanced up not believing it to be true, and what I saw, made me smile... I could see the slight shine of the sun rays trying to break through the thick gray clouds... Trying its hardest, not totally succeeding, but enough to give us hope... BUT... the best part of the whole "The SUN - the sun mommy" experience, was me glancing in the rear view mirror at the sparkle in my daughter's eyes... the dreary days don't get to her... She lives and loves every single day - sun or no sun. Rain or shine she delights in all that the world has to offer her. She is the SUN of my life... she is the spark in my life that jump starts me every single day. She is the reason I want to LOVE life like I've never ever imagined I would. When she smiles... I feel the warmth of the SUN.

HAPPY WEEKEND EVERYONE, and may you also enjoy the warmth of the SUN, rain or shine!
