Rain, Rain... I'm glad today was "Another Day"

I know when I was a kid I would always sing "Rain, rain, go away..." with great enthusiasm. But now, I adore rainy, spring days. I love how even though the skies are completely grey the grass, trees and flowers become so vibrant. I'm sure the contrast of the grey with the colors is part of it. I like to imagine that all the plants are soaking in the rain and showing off their colors brightly because of it. These kind of days always remind me of being in Virginia on my mission. I think I truly fell in love with rainy, spring days there. When I was there I could walk from one door to the next, or to another appointment and soak in all the bright colors and the fresh smell. I know it is all incredibly sentimental and Charity is probably hating the mushy stuff, but I love days like this.

Plus, here is the added bonus when I walk in the door...

Aren't they adorable?

Actually, I would have to totally agree with you. I am another mushy person when it comes to grey and drizzly spring days. I love how everything looks bright and vibrant.
P.S. You do have an adorable family.

You can really see how much Aine looks like Spence when they are together like that.
