Do you remember preschool? The age where the world is magical and it doesn't matter that you don't understand it because it's magic? Babysitting Lily last night reminded me of that age. At two and a half, my suggestion that we go outside at the exact moment that the sky let loose and rain was POURING down was unheard of. The fact that I went out with her and splashed in puddles and got my clothes and hair soaking wet was magical and probably something she'd never seen before. After reading Emily's blog about dancing in the rain with Harper, I've missed dancing in the rain. It's an item on my list and although I've done it countless times, it's been awhile. Thus, Lily and I spent an hour spinning, splashing, dancing, running, racing, and listening to the rain. Of course, we had to pour water out of our shoes afterwards and spray off the mud and clean up the floor but it was totally worth it. It was a spectacular evening, followed by cuddling under blankets and watching The Princess and The Frog before bedtime stories. =)
