It's Raining, It's Pouring ...

"I'm glad that it's raining," said Crackerjack just now, as we listened to the torrent outside.

"Why do you say that?" I asked.

"Because rain's good," he said simply, with a shrug of his shoulders.

A homeschooling mother can never resist a moment like that.

"Oh, really?" I replied, and then probed a bit further. "So what's all this rain good for?"

He threw his hands up in the air and looked at me in disbelief.

"For EVERYBODY, silly Mama!"

So true!!
