Rainy Day Women #12 & 35

Today when James woke up from his nap it was raining. May was still asleep so James and I watched the storm from the comfort of our front porch. When May woke up we got out the umbrella and our rain coats and went exploring. May enjoyed the sound of the rain falling on our umbrella the best.
James enjoyed the puddles the best. He was also very interested in finding out where it was raining and where it was not raining. It was raining in the front yard, the back yard, on the tree, and on our car. It was not raining in our garage, on our front porch, or by the back door (under the eave of our roof).
After the rain was finished, all the snails came out to play. James chose three big ones, lined them up on the sidewalk, and held a race. The best part was hearing him coach them. "On your mark, get set, GO!!! Go snails, go! . . . . This one is going the wrong way."

I love rainy days!
