Everything about it! The way it smells — or rather the smell rain evokes –, the misty air and the cooler temperatures. The past few days we’ve experienced all day sprinkles and overcast weather and it’s been so nice. Growing up I loved watching storms roll in and lightning strike in view from our big picture window. Splashing RainI remember being scared of the wind, but have grown to enjoy that too. There’s nothing like being in the woods while weather, other than just sunny, is happening. I just hate packing up the wet tents!

A few months ago, Fiona was bringing Kaisa home from church and it was raining. The rain drops landed on her through the carrier but when Fiona looked, she was just smiling and happy. I’m glad we have another rain lover in the family!
