September 22

I know some of you all are sick of rain, snow, sleet, and anything at all that falls from the sky in liquid form, but not me. I'd love to see some good, steady rainfall. The earth here is parched, plants are dying, we're stuck taking camp-quality showers. But not all is lost -- I saw this as Brady and I arrived at school to pick Isaac up from school.

A vibrant, happy little yellow dandelion. Despite the dried grass and dirt all around it, this little beauty is still thriving. Still growing. Still putting buttery, sunshine-y yellow-ness on full display.

It reminded me that even when times are tough and we're boxed in by strife and struggles, we can still choose to be bright lights in this world.
