Thunder!

Last night we had a thunderstorm as we were putting the girls to bed. We identified the thunder to Maeve and she was so intrigued. We all cuddled on our bed with the lights out and listened for it. Maeve kept making surprised faces and whispering"hear it?"....."it went away"...."bye-bye thunder", and when it came back she would get all excited again. Then later, after the girls were asleep, Kaleigh woke up and was crying so I went in the room to give her her paci. Maeve was still half asleep with her eyes closed but whispered "thunder thunder". Isn't it amazing to see the wonder of world through a toddler's eyes!
