This summer has been a ridiculously dry one. Our grass is a shade of brown that crunches under your feet when you walk on it. Most of the time I don't love rainy days but when I woke to the sound of sprinkles coming down this morning I couldn't help but feel a little excited. The rain brought about a nice relaxing visit from my parents where we just sat and talked together, after all, it is raining outside. And thanks to the rain our beautiful flowers finally made their appearance. Rain has its way of slowing us down and sometimes that is exactly what we need.
