Can you remember the excitement of a good old fashioned thunderstorm when you were a kid? Let me tell you - I have an up close and personal reminder in my son. This boy has the greatest fascination with all things weather, especially thunderstorms. He absolutely has to check my phone's weather app every morning upon waking up to find out the forecast for the day and the week ahead. I wish I could explain through words the excitement in his voice when he sees that tiny little lightening bolt on one of the days. It's absolutely hilarious and brings a smile to my face. The inner joy and delight from such a simple thing as the chance of a thunderstorm.
And when the dark clouds actually start rolling in and it begins to rain? It's literally a
party in this house! Next thing I know, I'm going to catch him out in the backyard performing a rain dance...
Who needs TV when you have a thunderstorm to watch through the window?
