The Cinderbrella...

So...if you aren't familiar with Colorado weather, rain is an unusual thing.  The climate is pretty dry - technically a high altitude desert - which is one of the reasons why I am so happy here.  I hate precipitation of any kind - and find rain to be particularly offensive.

As luck would have it we had a very wet late Spring and are apparently on track for a very wet early Fall.  It has been raining non-stop since early this afternoon.  I literally cringe when rain hits my skin - oh so cold and damp - so I broke down and purchased an umbrella.  It is the first umbrella I have owned in probably 15 years.

I took the kids to the gym as usual and of course it was STILL RAINING when we got there.  I get everyone out of the car and pop open my new handy-dandy umbrella.

The kids were transfixed.  Apparently neither of them has ever seen an umbrella!!!  Harlyn was particularly funny - she kept calling it a "Cinderbrella" and couldn't stop pointing out all the OTHER Cinderbrella's we saw on our way into the gym.

Undeniably cute...she is MY little Cinderbrella. :-)


Until next time...

Positively,

Kim
