I knew a dying woman who told her daughter to think of her when there was the most violent rain storms. She liked the excitement and didn't want rain to mean saddness.
Literally within days of her passing there was a torrential downpour with thunder and lightening. The boys were around 2 or 3 and we sat on the porch eating our dinner and talked about this woman.
I smile when it rains hard. It means she's having a good time somewhere.
Rainy days and Mondays always get me down. Well, not really, I actually enjoy rainy days and stormy weather. Your have posted a wonderful picture with a great title.
Purrrrrrrrrrrrrty. Hey, I was just not checking your blog because you were away. Waiting for you to show up at mine, but nooooooooooo. Then I noticed you commenting at other blogs and I said, "??????"
Thanks for your sweet comment at my place today...
And I was just reading your post below on going to camp. So interesting to know that although there might be some differences with where we live, general camp experiences with giggles and stories are probably pretty much the same world over! :)
Thanks for stopping by my site this morning. I will be stopping by yours often. I've always wanted to visit another country for more than a week - but probably not years.
The story begins like this: A couple of years ago my husband got a crazy notion in his head that returning to school after years in the professional world might be a good idea. So he and I along with our three children left our suburban life in the U.S. and traded it for a new adventure in The Netherlands.
The saga continues like this:
A year of post graduate study was so much fun, we figured we'd stay a while longer. Working in a new field, attending new schools and living in a new city, I dare say we have settled into a rhythm in our expat lives.
This blog is the record I keep of our experiences here; good, bad and hilarious. Intended as an outlet for my expression, this is the place for me to say my something.
Interesting picture. I love the way it looks like someone is actually crying.
