April showers bring May flowers – as the saying goes…. That first sign of a grey sky may bring a few smily faces down, your plans may get cancelled, but once you accept it and welcome it, it can be a very pleasant day anyway.
I find, I love to listen to the rain fall down, there’s something so calming about it to me. I turn up my favourite Whisperings station and together, the sound of the rain with the piano keys create a beautiful melody…
Maybe a few minutes of rain/ piano solitude is blissful, but what to do the rest of the day with kids running around….
Well, this weekend was just that kind of a weekend. It rained, and even snowed – yicks! Making it a very cold April weekend as well – so we knew we were staying home! We had Gabi’s friend come over for the day and we just hung out at home… painting pictures, watching this movie, baking muffins, and even helping paint a room (yes more painting going on in this house), and listened to lots of music and danced and jumped (on a daybed mattress that was brought into the living room), fun! Even I jumped ;) that is a workout ;)
So, do tell my friends, what do you do on a rainy day?

wow I love your pic today
When I was young the rain always got me in the mood to paint with watercolors. These days I am usually at work (full time, blah) so IF it rains on the weekend we watch movies, paint, read, role play with toys. Now if it rains during the summer we let K go outside and play in the back yard. I will even run around with her and get all wet too! She gets a kick out of that!
What a lovely, poetic post! And here’s a far less poetic comment lol – a rainy day is a good chance to catch up on blogs…. ;)
