Bring on the Rain....

We got truly hostile, beautiful, angry storms today....which we love, as long as we miss the tornados.  Abby Kate and I were at the grocery store when Bobby called to tell me a severe thunderstorm warning was in place and for me to hurry if I could and get home.  Well, I was half way through my list, and toting my toddler so hurrying is next to impossible.  I kept anxiously peering outside and seeing the black/greenish clouds roll in.  We got to the car during the sprinkling and then the storm began as we pulled out of the parking lot.  I decided to brave it and stopped by Braums to get our milk.  After we got home, AK wanted to stay in the garage and watch it rain.  I unloaded the groceries, put away dog food, stocked an ice chest for friends and then made her come inside.  She was heartbroken!  So we improvised and I let her watch from her chair out the front door.  She sat there for over an hour, eating Vanilla Wafers and watching it rain.  Agh, a child after my own heart.
