It's raining

Andrew and Caleb disappeared this morning as I was working hard to get ready for the end of the school year. When I found them, they were in the neighbor's yard playing.  I got after them for not telling me where they were, and got back to business.  As I got him dressed, Andrew kept telling me about their adventure collecting spider webs.  "And Mom, there is a tree where it looks like it's raining.  You need to come see it."
"Sure. We'll go in a little bit."

Finally, as he was leaving to go to a friend's house, he insisted that we see it before he get in the car.  We ran down to the neighbors' and through the gate.  Within a few feet, we entered a magical fairy land with tall trees and a locus tree high above us dropping tiny seeds.  Through the filtering light, it looked like a light rainfall that would stick to the spiderwebs hanging from the branches. Aside from the lone bird call, I could hear the seeds lightly hitting the ground like the softest rain.

The floor was scattered with tiny flowers.  "See?" he asked.  "Doesn't it look like it's raining?"

I'm so glad the Lord, in his mighty knowledge, paired the most busy people in the world with the most carefree.
