Looking over her shoulder
the sky is a leaden blue.
She hurries up our boat ride
worried about the coming blow.
With raindrops on the way
we make it safely back to land,
tie up the boat
and race the sandy beach
and sandy lawn beyond
to the safety of the cool house.
Aaliyah's excitement over the boat ride,
as only a three year old can be,
quickly becomes excitement over
Grandma's store of worn out toys.
Barbie and Ken held over in 80's attire
are still a big hit!
I looked out as lightening cracked
and a thunder boom sounded
to see a beautiful steady downpour.
Maybe just a small donation toward
the goal needed to refill our thirsty lake,
but all donations are gratefully accepted
on this day of gathering our family together.
