what i woke up to...

that's right...rain! this is a view from our front window...it hasn't rained in so long that when it started to rain in the middle of the night, it actually scared me for a minute...sad. when the girls woke up, kaia ran to the window with a look on her face like "what's that strange noise?" and looked outside and yelled "it's raining!" since i'm from texas & i know what real rain is, we'd call this a light rain...but she proceeds to say, "it's raining really hard!" poor girl, she doesn't know. then i pick up leia & take her to the window to see the rain and she looks up in the sky like "what in the world is that?" she's only seen rain a few times in her almost 18 months on this earth.
anyways...i love the rain this time of year!
