Surprise Summer Storm

This morning Ivy and I were laying in Becken's bed. I said, "Ivy, listen, I think that is an airplane." Then seconds later, a huge rainstorm began.
We have a covered patio that amplifies the sound of rain so much you feel like you are right inside a rain cloud. And, I really do think that we were right in the center of the storm for a good 15 minutes. The word that kept coming to my mind was glorious. Even the lightening was visible, happening right alongside the thunder. If only they could get some natural skin care products that smelled like a thunderstorm in August.
It was a beautiful morning.
