Oh The Rain

Here comes the rain again,

Falling on my head like a memory,

Falling on my head like a new emotion,

"Eurythmics"

Anyone remember this song?    I think I finally understand it now.  Oh the rain is here. Living in the Pacific Northwest is so very beautiful, that is if you are willing to live through the eight months of rainy grey skies.  I haven't decided if it is worth it yet.  

I do take great comfort in the many different varieties of coffee here.  

My other newest love is knitting.  I enrolled my two children in a knitting class at the local yarn shop.  They fell in love with it and I have learned through them.  I love sitting by the fireplace, drinking a rich frothy cup of coffee and knitting.  

A few nights ago, we were sitting around the fireplace reading our latest family novel "Fable Haven" and I had a dejavu moment.  I can remember before having children envisioning what it would be like when I did have children,  what it would be like.  I remember thinking how nice it would be to sit around the fire and knit with my daughters.  And there we were doing just that. 

So Sweet.
