It's raining, it's pouring

We have had quite a rainy summer!  As I've mentioned previously, Lucy loves being outside, and no amount of rain will stop this girl.  In fact, I think it kind of encourages her to go outside so she can play in it!  One afternoon a couple of weeks ago, we had a huge downpour that lasted a long time and after a few minutes of watching from our doorstep, Lucy just looked at me and smiled and took a small step towards the rain, then another one, until I just told her to go and she ran out into it.
