Last Friday afternoon, a light rain came through Mitchell. Lauren has had a fascination with umbrellas for a while, so I suggested she go outside with an umbrella. She jumped at the chance. Of course, she requested a purple umbrella (her favorite color right now), but made due with the only umbrella we had.
After standing in the driveway and singing under her umbrella, she became more adventurous and wandered to the patio. She was pleasantly surprised to find that if she stood under the downspout, she could get "poured" on. 
Notice, the shoes came off and she found a nice place to relax (on the slide of her not-yet-constructed swingset from Uncle Brandon and Aunt Kim).
Was she singing the song, "I'm singing in the rain"... that would be perfect. Lauren demonstrates so well that the simple things of life should be enjoyed.
ReplyDeleteRain + umbrella = good time!
That would have been a good song. I taught her "It's raining, It's pouring" I'll work on singing in the rain for next time.
