Spring Rain

I really love a spring rain at the Deweybarn. It is a day to play inside games while listening to rain on a metal roof. Outside, if you can forgive the mud, it feels warm and fresh. Everything is greener, the leaves have come out a bit more, and the air smells of new flowers. When it is quiet you can hear water rushing in the streams and songbirds chirping. It is a day to allow yourself a seat on the couch to watch a feature length film with your kids. To hell with dirty dishes in the sink.
