Rain, rain, go away or not?

Summer is officially here and we're stuck in the house while the earth is being showered on. Seems boring and all but the truth is that I LOVE LOVE LOVE the rain! Really!! For some reason it inspires me to be extra creative and puts me in that state of mind that is ideal for writing. I get to get the stuff out and "see" what it looks like. All the while my girls are either stringing beads to make bracelets and necklaces, or imagining their room to be a fairy hideaway, the dog is just hanging out snoozing under the coffee table and the baby is crawling around the house with her cloth diaper and a teething cracker in the one hand. I get to write. I also get to sew. Two things I simply love to do. So rain, please don't go away. I welcome your fresh inspiring water.
