Dearest Rylee Lorraine,

Apparently you like playing in the rain. Let me rephrase that.  Apparently playing in the rain is the best thing thats ever happened to you. Daddy and Damen took you out to play after a beautiful summer monsoon rolled in. You screamed for half an hour when it was time to come in.

The windows are open and the cool, wet breeze is snaking its way through our downstairs. You're sucked into nightmare before christmas. Damen and Dad are sitting at the table eating. Kian and I are rocking next to the open back door. Pure happiness. This is the perfect afternoon.


I love you forever baby girl,

Mommy
