Rain, rain, and more rain

 The rainy season is lasting longer this year and though we are blessed to not be affected too much-there are many who again are forced out of their homes due to flooding and related issues.  I have been able to go a few times to deliver food and clean water to evacuation centers and took lollipops to children and helped bag rice that would be given out to families. 

This is what the kids like to do when it rains though!  This started with just going out to play in the rain and they were standing on the pool steps and kept edging deeper and finally were just swimming in their clothes!!!

 I love the below picture because it displays how Ashley lives life-arms up, happy and excited to dive into anything!

 They had a fun afternoon!
