Puddle jumper

Last Friday night it was pouring rain when we tucked Hope into bed. We talked about lightening and how thunder happens when the clouds crash together, and mentioned briefly that there might be puddles to jump in the next morning.

Well, Saturday morning I walked into Hope's room and she greeted me with "It's time to jump in puddles now?" There was no convincing her to get dressed or have breakfast first.

She took a sausage with her and spent a good long time splashing, kicking, and playing in the puddles. It's always fun to watch her get totally engrossed in ordinary things that I would otherwise take for granted!
