The last few days have brought an incredible amount of rain to Houston. As it began to thunder and lightning last night, I was kind of bummed that our Saturday would be ruined by a torrential downpour. Then today happened.
The morning started with strawberry pancakes, lots of syrup, and two shots of espresso. We played some board games, did some writing, hit up some fun iPad apps, completed a Mary Claire photo shoot, and had a dance party. Between rain showers, we fit in a bike ride and a “bubble walk.” It was an unexpectedly simple and glorious day.
From the MC photo shoot (some of these pictures were actually taken by Joshua on his McQueen camera!)…
The day provided far more snapshots taken with our minds than with our cameras, and it was amazing all around. The highlight for me was the bubble walk. Brian was taking the big bubble wand and making bubbles as Joshua ran happily after them, laughing and popping them while simultaneously jumping in huge puddles and piles of mud left by the rain. When we were almost home, he said this unprompted and out of the blue…
“Daddy, you’re fun. Really fun. I like playing with you. You’re the best daddy in the whole wide world. I’m never going to stop loving you.”
Beautiful day. We’re thankful.
