Today is the first proper rain we've had all summer, and the Namibian summer is a long, hot, dry one. So the relief of the pouring rain is great. Ashlee and Natty both apprecaited the respite (Natty crawled into the puddles and Ashlee said "rain is here, thank you rain". This morning when she woke up she looked out of the window and said "good morning rain." And the delight of having mummy car wet and full of drops was also expressed.
Ashlee and I ventured to the shops to get her a new umbrella, and she displayed her usual delight at all the Christmas trees, balls, Father Christmases and cookies, before choosing a pink umbrella, like Spot the Dog, excpet that his is blue. She pranced all the way back to the car with her new umbrella. Joy outnumbered, and not something we have alot of in this desert town.
