Because my car needs a rinse
For rain boots, coats, and umbrellas
For kids to splash in puddles
Because the animals are thirsty,
And so are the ponds and streams
For flowers to grow
To turn the world green
Because the clouds are tired
To turn the skies blue
Sometimes to make rainbows
Sometimes to cool us
To wash away pollen
To create a soothing sound
For inside play
For getting wet!
Beautiful reasons – great reminder to me this rainy morning, too
Thank Maryanne!
Out here we love rain because it settles the dust and refreshes everything…. only happens once in a while. =)

I would imagine in the desert it is not a stretch to enjoy rain!
I agree with Maryanne. These are wonderful reasons, and ones I have to keep in mind constantly here in Abby…

I bet it is hard to enjoy if it is always raining!
You have a good perspective. I am a little annoyed with the cold and the drizzle after that week of nice weather. But we could use a good, HARD rain for the flowers!

I think a good hard rain is the best kind!
Oh, okay. I guess rain is sorta kinda good.
