rainbows....

So, I am busy looking through craft stuff for VBS next week and I call a friend to ask her a question. The first words out of her mouth are not, "Hi", "hey there" or anything similar to the expected greeting. Nope....the first words are, "Do you see that rainbow???" I quickly turn my head to the window and am greeted by such a vivid beautiful rainbow!! :) There was another one above it, but by the time I got my camera it was fading, so I concentrated on the vivid one. I could have missed it, but I am glad I didn't. Seeing a rainbow floods my mind. It brings back childhood memories, memories of my own children's joy at seeing rainbows, reminders of God's promise, the happy feeling of seeing all the beautiful colors in one beautiful arc, memories of the funny stories about the pot of gold and how I just knew as a kid that I was going to stumble upon that overflowing pot, but best of all......rainbows just make me smile. Thanks, Mel!!
