Double Rainbow
An ordinary Thursday that had a surprise almost ending. Everyone is tired and ready for school to be out for the summer. Suddenly a light rain starts to fall while the sun remains in the sky. To our amazement and surprise not one but two rainbows appear in the sky. Or as Bre likes to call them Roy G. Biv (red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet). It's not often that we get to see one of those amazing earthly sights that only God himself could shower upon us but even less often to see two glorious rainbows just sitting there in the sky. My children stared in awe and chattered about it's beauty. I sat silently hoping to catch a photo that would remind just how lucky we are. A kind of peace came over me making me realize how lucky I am to have the life I have. I'm thankful that I have a husband that loves me no matter what the circumstance and children and that are happy and relatively healthy. Today nature put made me realize how wonderful life can be. Despite the fact that I have to figure out how to get a happy meal toy out of the toilet and end of the year school "stuff" is wearing me out emotionally and physically on a daily basis life is still good.

I thoroughly enjoy reading your blog and looking at the pictures to hear your words of comfort, sometimes living vicariously through you. I never will have the opportunity to father children and often think of the wisdom of youth I am missing. And for you to have taken your plight a step further in working with children in special education only reinforces the power of your soul, the strength of your character and the warmth of your heart. If we only had more mothers that had a mere snapshot of the qualities you pocess. Continue to blog and I will continue to read.

Thank you.
