It's Raining...In Case You Hadn't Noticed [Personal]

Just in case you hadn't noticed, it's raining. And it's been raining for almost a week straight. My husband reminds me of this multiple times a day....maybe it's because his work is all outdoors...none-the-less, I know it's raining.

I guess it's one of those weeks where it needed to rain. And after the tornadoes here in St. Louis, I feel horrible even saying that as the clean-up efforts continue. But when I was a kid, I used to think that it rained because God was sad in heaven--obviously right? The raindrops certainly reflected His mood so He must be sad. Made sense at such a young age. Now that I'm older and wiser (well...maybe just older), I still think that maybe there just might be a correlation between the two. And my heart is definitely sad this week after seeing the destruction of the tornadoes and hearing about the loss of a life too young.

The sun will shine again and a new day will dawn tomorrow. My heart is sad today, but tomorrow it will get a little bit better. Tonight I think I'll cuddle with my husband a little longer. Tomorrow I'll make sure to blow my sweet nieces a few kisses and stay on the phone just a touch longer with my mom...all because tomorrow is a new day and that's just life my friends.
