"Every month at the quarter moon / There'll be a monsoon in your lagoon."
We had an amazing amount of rain again today, so much that visibility when driving was extremely small. It was one of those wicked lines, a sharp front stretching from north of the state to south, nothing but solid red on the radar over that line. Red, of course, means a huge amount of rain.
Cars traveled along very slowly as the deluge just kept coming, and water built up anywhere and everywhere. It even flooded one of the parking lots at the church, and started seeping in the doors for service tonight. It was impressive. Daddy had to get Mommy and Madison back home in the rain, and the driving seemed perilous. We took our time getting home, and then Daddy had to return in all of that. Fortunately, by God's grace he did, and got back to church safely.
As you might suspect, there weren't as many people there tonight for service. But it was still a great service, with an emphasis on Uno. Daddy made these special Uno cards that I'll share here below. They came out really well, and worked with our illustration.
Meanwhile, Madison had homework, and ballet of course. Next week, she does not have ballet, nor piano. Nor school, for that matter. But there's always something to learn, even on these final days before a break. Madison dances around the house sometimes, twirling and extending her arms gracefully as she spins in place. It's nice to see, and she definitely enjoys it - the girls and her instructor are nearly like family now.
We did no reading tonight, although we did finally finish that Descendants book last night. That took a few weeks to get through, but Madison certainly enjoyed it. The next few books will be shorter - Daddy has reserved a few, and will probably put a hold on a few more soon. We might even go to the library tomorrow, actually.
And that's where we're at for the day. It's been a good one and a busy one - although a very wet one!
