Something new.

Monsoon season.  I love it.  I love in the late afternoon to see the clouds start rolling in and then the electrical storms start.  The most amazing lightning shows you have ever seen.  All of a sudden a down pour with a ton of rain.  Sometimes staying for awhile, sometimes pouring down and then going on its way.  I LOVE RAIN.  There is nothing like cracking open a window to listen to it, to read on the couch, snuggle my babies or fall asleep listening to it.  The other day it was really coming down so I opened the blinds and my littlest two sat by the window and just watched and watched quietly.
Hudson was very curious about the way it was hitting the window.  He sat there looking at it, pressing his face to it and watching it.  He would touch it and then try to wipe it, then look at his hand again trying to figure out why it didn't move or feel different.
He kept putting his hand on the window and then as the raindrops hit around his hand he would giggle as if he could feel it and it tickled him.
He was completely intrigued and it was adorable.  So lucky as a mom to get to watch them experience something for the first time.  Even more lucky to get to do that over and over again with each of them.  Watching their little eyes light up with curiosity at seeing something completely new.
