Rain

Today I give myself permission

to choose my wants over my shoulds.

I want to curl up on the front porch

with a good book.

Smell the refreshing morning rain.

Listen to the birds sing.

I want to take pictures.

I want to go barefoot all day...

 and delight in a Summer thunder storm.

And if 50 lbs of scared

comes to find comfort on my lap...

I want to delight in that too !

I want to play and create.

And marvel at the little things.

I want to loose myself in daydreams.

So thank you God for the rain !!

You always give us what we need.  

Today I needed a big drenching of You !

These moments are heaven sent.

Thank you !

My little heart is all a flutter.

XOXO

Here's a little smile for you !
