Thunder. A little bit of lightning. And an even smaller bit of rain. Funny how the girls know what an earthquake is and what to do if we are in one, but have no idea what to do with a thunderstorm!

I so miss thunderstorms. We are lucky if we get one a year here in SoCal. But today as we were leaving a friend’s house, we got a little taste of one. (It is still kind of rumbling, but no real rain.) And Buckley, Em’s little friend, was so excited. “Hey! Do you know when we have a thunderstorm we get to have hot cocoa, popcorn and watch a movie?!”

So what are the girls doing right now? Yep. Drinking hot cocoa, eating popcorn and watching a movie. And I’m having a nice hot coffee. It is the perfect afternoon.

Do you really think Miss Caroline would miss her lead swan for the dance recital this afternoon? Probably not!

*Sigh* You are probably right.
