My Three Little Bosses!

  



So This Is What They Call A Rainy Day!!!


It is definitely a rainy day.  It has rained all day long and isn't supposed to stop until sometime tomorrow.  This is all well and good, I guess.  The temperature has dropped, but who can go out and enjoy it with the sky spitting on you and laughing.  On our way home from picking up Alex at school this afternoon we saw high school students walking home in the rain. A truck splashed water all over one teenage girl.  She looked shocked, stopped walking, and then looked as if she was going to cry.  She shook her head and kept walking.  I felt bad for her -- and then I wondered why she didn't have a rain coat -- or even an umbrella.  I know some teenagers think they're uncool, but if you have to walk home in the rain you would think you would want something to keep you dry -- or at least a little less wet. We made it home and pulled into the garage. The boys hopped out of the car, ran inside and Alex immediately asked if he could watch a movie. Since it is rainy and gross outside, it seems perfect for a movie!

Alex came home from school with a folder full of work he did today. It was all done correctly and we are so proud of him.  One worksheet asked that the students circle the "I" in the sentence and underline the "am."  They had to fill in either "I" or "am" in a sentence as well and Alex did it all correctly. I was telling Alex how proud of him I was when Logan said, "R-E-D That spells red."  I said, "Yes, it does!  Where did you learn that?"  He shrugged his shoulders and said, "At my school."  I was one proud mommy at that point.  I was certain my boys were just the smartest boys in the world.  It's funny how proud you feel at every little thing your child does correctly or everything they achieve.  I was very proud of both of them.

Now, on this rainy day I am about to make some home made chicken noodle soup for dinner.  The weather seems perfect for it. I do not mind rainy days like this when I don't have to get out in it.  I can stay home, drink coffee or hot cocoa, and read a good book and enjoy it.  I do mind them somewhat when I have to make three trips to the school in the rain and have to run to the library, the bank, or any other place. Its just easier to do things when it's not raining. :)

So, here is hoping that some time tomorrow the sun makes an appearance and we can step outside with out being pegged by rain drops.

Until that happens, enjoy these pictures!  Ha

This is a picture of the sky last night.  It was so pretty!

And I had to include a picture of the boys!
